Opel blitz measurements?

Post by Model Builder 4 »

Morning all,

I'm going to make a start on a German 4x4 truck now from the H/L truck, I was hoping that someone could give me some measurements from an opel blitz, in particular I'm looking for the distance between the front wheel centre to the rear wheel centre and also the length and width of the rear cargo bed, any info and help would be gratefuly received :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

Lee Hi, If no one else can help perhaps these two sites might come to the rescue, in any case they are always useful to have around.

www.the-blueprints.com

www.drawingdatabase.com

One is free the other makes a small charge but both are very handy.
Shaun.
