Replica German Armored Car Plans
Does anyone on the forum know where I can get CAD drawings/plans of the SdKfz 222 for use in the construction of a replica.
I have seen quite a few of the replicas on the net so I presume someone would have created CAD drawings and build information on these vehicles |

Have a look here: http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread...plica-sdkfz222
I think you have to look at model kit builder to get drawings

3D plans
I saw something on the internet which may help.There is an outfit which has done a 3D model of this car and they sell some kind of download of the drawing. Maybe this would help http://gunpoint-3d.com/model-Sdkfz222.html It is a complicated shape ,not easy to do.Another way is simply buy a Tamiya or Dragon Sdkfz 222 model in 1/35, assemble it, then very carefully measure it and then scale this up. Maybe you can do an actual floor, side walls,upper small side walls, then a partial top ,the correct width, then start using plywood to develop the templates for the rest. It`s a tricky shape

It may be worth spending the $35 and downloading the high res graphics of the vehicle. It would certainly give me a good idea of detail etc. The model suggestion also has merit. I will have to check out what models are available . Using the scaled up measurements and building a plywood mockup sounds like it may be the way to go. Lots to think about on this one. |

replicas
There seem to be a number of Landrover and Unimog based Sdkfz 222 ACs in Europe on the re-enacting circuit.
