Not sure on the dreaded 'X's over on the Warship Forum side. At first I really thought I must have broke it , since I've posted a few 'oversize' pics. (I really need to figure out how to resize them). But other Forum's have oversized pics, so that's not it.
I was hoping that it would correct itself (yeah, right).
We'll see.

I got the dreaded RED XXXX on several pages here today.
including this forum. Get to see some pictures ---- get the Red X on the others
never been able to figure out why, is it my puter or the server?

Here's one for all you Jeep/Willy's fans.......actually, I don't think this would be that hard to scratch!



Do you believe it?

Ola People

Searching through the web I found a Prototype Schwimmwagen built on the Chassis of a Kubel.


Thought that was pretty sweet. In one or another way Prototypes always have something intruiging. I always wonder seeing a prototype why the thing didn`t go to battle and what the reason of it was

But nontheless nice picture of a funny vehicle

Hmmmm, thanks for the pic FAUST......but, are you absolutely sure it's actually doing any 'Schwimming'?

Maybe they should have considered calling it a 'Sittingwagen'. :-)

Well they are definately not hard working getting the water out of the vehicle so yeah I think that would qualify for Schwimmwagen and not as Sinkwagen :-) :-) :-) :-)
Indeed the vehicle is not that deep into the water but the Pic said it was a prototype of the Schwimmwagen. Probably they didn`t dare to go that deep with the vehicle. That immediately explains why the vehicle didn`t make it to the battlefield
