Hi Goncalo

What information in particular are you looking for?

The two axle tanker version of the U2044, and U70 in Bart Vanderveen's WWII Fighting Vehicles Directory and his later Historic Military Vehicles Directory. I believe also that there may have been an article in Wheels and Tracks.

I believe that the 2x4 version and the 4x6 versions of the tankers were slightly militarized or standard commercial tanker trucks.

Cheers Phil
