This one left the factory on the 19th May 1943 & was issued to the Waffen-SS at Oranienburg (now a northern suburb of Berlin)

Even in the presence of the above 2 heavyweights, this is my fav. vehicle. It was a rusty but gen 1 owner when I got it. I was told it may have been a "bastard 40hp" but I'm pretty sure it's orig a 36hp. Currently a 1600SP (with an upjetted 28pci so I can have a manual choke) with a 40hp trans. Drives very sweetly.

very nice kg, awsome single cab and im sure another awsome single cab to come. 2 questions, is your garage a car park, and is that a rotiserie around that single cab ,if so i want one, very cool :thumb

Nice fleet geodon. Who would have thought there was a Kubel as close as Geelong.
Love to see it on a Cruise one day. That would be a traffic stopper. :bounce

Yes that's a rotisserie- still not connected- the physics gets a bit complicated when it's half a ton of metal rotating. We've lived on a small acreage since 1980 as a result of having 3 daughters with equestrian leanings. That means plenty of shed space! Geelong is blessed with VW's-when I sold my schwimmer, it only moved up the road a bit!
I tend to trailer the kubel. It's very slow-think 36hp kombi- & causes quite a stir. Now I have more time, I intend to use it around the Otway trails.Nothing strenuous, just dribbling arond with the windscreen flat.
