Sorry Pine. I looked at the pics again and paid attention this time :D . All the pictures that you posted are from the same car. That was when Arno had it with the radio in.

Werner Alker told me that there might be three Kubelwagens in SA. Do you know who owns the others.
Here is a picture of Werner Alker's 1943 Kubelwagen.
