About the Author

About Robert Blokker (FAUST)
FROM: NOORD-HOLLAND, NETHERLANDS

Started modelling when I was about 7 or 8 years old had a little break in between (school, girls partying) and eventually returned when finding this site in 2002. Main interest WW2 German army, wheeled vehicles and radio and communication troops or every other thing that manages to catch my interest...

Very nice pics, Robert, thanks for sharing! I'm a little confused with the license plates: the vehicle with the front LP 156747 (pic 59) is the same one with rear LP 1567470? (pic 80) Thanks Darío

Dario, the front plate looks new...possibly to register the vehicle, for insurance purposes or make it road legal? Robert, thanks again for a very professional walk-around, should be a great help when the Schwimmwagen hits my bench

Ola Guys @ Dario I have no clue what's up with the licenseplates. With them being on restored vehicles I did not pay too much attention to them as there is a chance that they are modern plates. Since obviously you need them when you want to enter the road with them. The fully sandcolored Schwimm carries modern German version @ James. Thanks again for the good work putting up the pics and I indeed hope they will become usefull for you and any modeler planning to built a schwimmwagen. That is the reason I send them in.

Ola Ryally Your welcome. Looking forward to seeing your results mate. And believe me when you had visited the event you would probably understand that it was no punishment to make all the pictures.
