ALL THE BEST JERRY .
I saw your post on G503 about your DCKW project.do you know the chassis numbers of the three? I'm guessing they were CCKW prefix if standard CCKW chassis were used? or were the chassis for the DCKW specially built?
it's a shame GM are not more open with their WW2 records.
What have I have started so I have posted this
The DCKW had a 151 inchwheel base by the look of it thay used a dodge cab and hood studebaker wings could do with some hellp with photos and any of your comments would be wellcome.
All the best Jerry.
