I need some help.
Anybody got some ‘plans / instructions’ for the cold weather starter? I just got Gunze Sangyo’s Engine with Mechanics for Sd Kfz 250 and low and behold it has the cold weather starter as well.
DML’s kubelwagen w/cold weather starter & mechanics is OOP (I have been searching for it for a while). Now all I need are the plans / instructions! Anyone able to help out PLEASE? :-)

Now this isn't quite about the mechanical cold weather starter but some people have been known to start their VW Beetles or Citroens by having a small fire under the engine. I've even seen video footage of this: there was some sort of Beetle or Citroen gathering rally in Lapland (in winter) and they had to help the engines a bit because it was so cold.
The Kubelwagen and Beetle are close relatives so maybe this would be a diorama idea for some.
