Hi,

I need a pic of the mounting for the Flak 38 (2cm) mounted in the bed of a truck...... I know the had to raise it a bit, to get the barrel over the bed sides but I don't have any pics of just how they did it...

Thanks,

Gray

Here's my attempt at such a truck. I took the sides off and removed the rear fenders to create a truck that may have been salvaged and field modified. I don't have any idea if it is accurate but it seems possible.
