I'm wanting information on this German trailer, pic off the internet is for reference only:



I know Azimut makes a version, but it is not exactly like this one.

I'm really hoping to find some drawings or specifications so I can make my own.

Thanks.

Looks like a Einheitsanhänger E 3 3t, offen (o)

Apparently the Azimut kit is based on a Opel Blitz kit :

Thanks. I got the picture from the MM thread. Google came up with very little. Azimut kit is based on the Maltier from what I read. Better pictures of the frame, or drawings would be best. A walk around would be nice. The only one on Prime Portal looks modern.

Maybe some postwar E-3 (built in the GDR) pics would help ?

Frenchy,

Thanks for the link. I Googled the description in the link and got a few good pictures of trailers for sale. One is probably WWII.

Just came across a factory picture of a 3 ton trailer built by Kassbohrer :



Full size (hi-res)

AFAIK, "Einheitsanhänger" trailers were built by several other manufacturers, like MIAG.
