I downloaded a book titled German Trucks and Cars in WW2 - Ford at War and came across this page.

These are from the same book and should fit in this thread. Those Carden Loyd carriers sure underwent major changes! How many would the Germans have captured anyway? To make 3000 of these halftracks they must have started reproducing the track assemblies somewhere along the line.

Thank you sir !!!!
Hi David
Man that translation is really sketchy..... but every little bit helps.... I have collected every picture from MLU...... I do consider doing a full size replica of a captured vehicle..... should be fairly straight forward..... historical accuracy should not be an issue as so many details are left to the imagination and what was available at the time. I have a few Cab 11/12 to draw parts from but it will have to be a Chev.... and possibly with an auto tranny for easier driving..... some Chev 6 combination....stricly a fun machine. Thanks for your help......

Bob.
One of these would make a cool toy all right! I'm thinking of building one from a Cab 11 F15A. I don't know what their coach work would have been like but it looks like you could use square tubing the same size as the CMP door thickness for framework and spot weld sheet metal to it. Screw the inside panels on so you have access to the door handle mechanisms. Notice on that model they have the endgate hinged from the top but in this side view it folds down to use as a table (just like a 'real' endgate.) Also notice on this pic that the bottom of the added on rear cab doesn't line up with the bottom of the CMP cab. You might figure out why when you delve a little deeper in the project. Also notice that some have CMP headlights while others have the German ones; some have the push bar while others don't and some use CMP bumpers while others have a mount that lowers the bumper and use a different bumper. I really think that most of the details are covered in the posted pics. The pic with the 2 Umbaus is from another forum and hasn't been posted here before. On that side view pic I removed the overwriting plus the radio and rifles just for clarity's sake. Gotta love Photoshop! beute.jpg beuteumbauwagenmitfunkpic10sq.jpg cmpkfz15-2.jpg
