Default update

OK some updates:

There was nothing Soviet about this cars, they were Spanish built (after the BA6 model) in Barcelona on Chevrolet chassis. Nothing Soviet untill captured, off course.

Mr Regenberg's book shows four more pictures of the Spanish Chevrolet (I should have turned the page immediately), this time proving the Wehrmacht service story.

The two cars were called Jaguar and Leopard. Leopards turret was removed, before capture by the Soviets. At least one of these cars served as war correspondents' vehicle in 612th Propaganda company (WH). Jaguar had her main armament removed and a Reibel mg was fitted for the propagandists' selfdefence.

I guess the first picture above was taken in an earlier stage, as it still shows the main gun.

Now what about the chassis?
