About the Kubelwagen Type 82

The Kubelwagen was originally designed as a civilian vehicle, but after German militaristic expansion and mobilization in the late 1930's plans were soon made for a military version. After the poor performance of the Kubelwagen Type 62, an improved model designated Type 82 went into mass production in 1940. The Kubelwagen Type 82 featured a trustworthy 4-cylinder, horizontally opposed, air-cooled engine, capable of 23.5hp at 3000rpm and provided a top speed of 80km/h. Over 50,000 Kubelwagens were produced by the war's end. From the searing heat of the North African Front to the blistering cold of the Russian Front, the Kubelwagen Type 82 was used for reconnaissance and communications purposes.

it looks pretty ordinary to me..its grey material with red stripes. doesnt sound that special! but he said he just sold a knackered interior like it for 125 quid or something. and mine is in pretty good nick. so atleast i know if the car rusts away to a little pile, i can sell the interior! um, unless he was only blowing smoke up my tailpipe!?

i wouldn't have said rare but they are very nice. the latest models had these, they did them in blue and all grey too. nice seats, if the car does go up the spout you'll be able to sell them on. interior prices are weird, i've seen sets go for  a tenner and other sets go for stupid money. in fact i sold two identical interiors, 8v grey/red check, one set went for £20 the other went for £100. bizarre.....
