Hi all , can any of our French or German members help out with any info about a Renault TN6C bus that was converted by the German army into a Ambulance / medical unit.
my friend is converting the heller 1.24 scale kit but he has only one photo to work from. Cheers ian

This photo ?



Frenchy

Yep Frenchy

That is the pic Nick has already. You are normally the man who can when it comes to pulling rabbits out of the hat !!!!!!!!!!

It will be great to see Nick's model go forward as I know he will really do it justice !!!!!!!!

Nice subject and really like the look of those trucks in the background too.

HURRY UP NICK and get this one going !!!!

Hi Nige

If you're interested, I can send you a few pics of WW2 French Army ambulances (providing you don't have F. Vauvillier's book )

Frenchy

OOooooooooooooo That would be useful !!!!!!

I have a Citroen Taxi that I wonder if it would make a good conversion subject. HAd thought of something commandeered into Luftwaffe or Wermach service. But an Ambulance might be an easy job if you have pics.

Merci Lots

Hi nige can you forward any info or photos to nick ? cheers ian

Hi Ian

Frenchy has been kind enough to pass on some great pics of ambulances based on the chassis of Renault trucks similar to the Citroen C4 hotel taxis I have.

Afraid nothing on the bus conversion at the moment, but if I know Frenchy, he is probably hitting keys right now trying to find some.

He seems to find some amazing pics for folks when they themselves have been looking for ages.

The pics were great Frenchy and gives me plenty food for thought.

You're welcome Nige, but I've afraid the bar is set too high for me this time. I've found this picture on several forums but this very converted bus appears to be a one-of-a-kind beast...

Here's a restored C4-based "ambulance" :

Fantastic work as usual

I think, this magazine will be useful for Renault TN bus modellers:
