has anyone seen any pictures of this model. I did once in a book but cant seem to find it anymore.
I would like to make a conversion for it as it would like great in a diorama on the battlefield.

hey andy, is this it ?.................oz

Thats the beetle version mate the box on the back was put on the Kubel in 1945 and then used by the Allies as tool and postal vans. Only a few Kubels were built as the bodies were made in berlin which was in the Soviet sector so when the parts ran out Beetle chassis were extensively used.
Infact what i am looking for mate is for you to make me a postal version in 1/16. Hence looking for reference material

doing the postal version is not a prob, i,ll look into it for you getting the info wont be too hard.............oz

not a good pic but this is it...................oz

So wheres this going i hear you say. be nice to convert a 1/16 Kubel into the box van delivering post to the troops

Anyone got a 1/16 kubel static kit they want unloading in exchange for parts.

Thought i might be the first one to do this conversion how wrong was i

Still want one though.
Apparently this model was made from Spring 1945 to 1947 to help out with the german recovery,

Still need a 1/16 static european Kubel kit though.

Sorry about that but don`t let it stop you from building one, because they are great fun when driving them around.
Here`s a pic of the dummy tank conversion that a friend did to hes  kubelwagen, sorry about the quality but its the only picture of it i have.
