Hi Koenigstiger, hi Bill,

to the pic with the trucks on a place in a barrack (sorry for my delay, but I was away for a few days):
I agree with You, Bill, to the producer, but the type 15/150 semms to be tto small, because he had only two wheels on the rear axle. So it must be a larger type. I assume it is the type 300 or 350. And I think, that the trucks on the right are a VOMAG type 3 LV 443.

Thanks for the correction, Bert, it is quite evident on the photo I posted which was in error, I do think we have the right marque.

I assume you are correct on the larger truck, I just could not ID it at all.

Bill

[kerryboo]

Clearly a Vomag, but what model please? The bed length looks very short for the length of the engine bay.
Thank you,
Kerry.

Hi Kerry,

to Your VOMAG truck.

I think it is the type 4,5 LR 444. Some details to the designation:
4,5 = payload (here 4,5 tons)
L = Lastkraftwagen (truck)
R = Rohöl (Diesel)
4 = engine with 4 cylinders
44 = wheelbase (Radstand) = here 4,40 m

Thank you Bert, very much appreciated. I went to Holger's site, but he has no photo. I am guessing that the cab is a military pattern, not a commercial product?
Cheers,
Kerry.

Firstly I think this isn't the correct thread for this question, this is for UI vehicles not unit signs, I've linked the thread below.

But to answer your question, I believe that is the sign for LXXVI Panzer Korps.

Hi Kerry,

You are right, it is a military pattern with the open standard driver´s cab (Einheitsführerhaus) and the long foot board, typically for vehicles made for the Wehrmacht. Thank You very much for posting this very interesting pic of the VOMAG truck. I think this type was produced only in very small series, maybe especially for the Luftwaffe.

Regards

Bert

Very interesting Bert.
My thanks and best regards,
Kerry.

Here is another truck I think it is an Opel Blitz, but again, not really sure. Also, can anybody explain the racks on the roof please?
Thank you,
Kerry.

[Alanmccoubrey]

Kerry, that rack might be to carry a 50 gallon oil drum. It would be a lot of work getting it up there of course.

[kerryboo]

Thank you Alan, I certainly would not want to put a drum up there, but it does look like that is the purpose.
Here are a couple of views, is it an Audi of some sort? It has the Auto Union rings, but that is as far as I get.
Thanks,
Kerry

Hi Kerry:

It is certainly a Horch, and I am fairly certain it is a mid to late 1930's 830BL.

There were also very similar limousines built on the 850 chassis but mostly they were reserved for the higher brass types so I don't think it is one of those given the locale and general untidiness of the vehicle in your photo.
