My Schwimmwagen Torro

[Harry Serpent]

Yes Fred I know, this must be what Torro used for reference and got mixed up.

Or maybe because Torro will release a Kubelwagen...

Bravo! I approve of the canvas roof for your Schwimmwagen. That is a fine addition! Maybe you can create a sewing pattern and sell it.
