Flakpanzer IV Mobelwagen
Posted by Loureiro on Friday, September 3, 2004 8:23 PM
Hello everyone!
I'm new writing in the foruns but I read them for quite long. By the way thanks for the good tips to you all.
My girlfriend gave me a flakpanzer IV mobelwagen as a birthday present. Well I thought this would give a nice diorama. The truth is I'm having dificulties getting information and, specially, good pic references for this vehicule. Anyone?

Thanks,
Loureiro Cool [8D]

First off, welcome to the asylum, er...Forum! Sign - Welcome [#welcome]
I don't know of any books specifically on the "Furniture Van". Most books on Panzer IVs have at least a few pages on the Mobelwagen, such as the Schiffer books; The Panzer IV Family, and Panzer IV and It's Variants. I have a line drawing, but I haven't found a 4-way one yet.

Here is a preserved Mobelwagen at Saumur;



Additional photos can be seen at; www.jagdtiger.de
Although, beware the other one posted there does not have the correct gun. (a Bofors Confused [%-)] )
I wonder if this is the legendary Panzer Gray Mobelwagen of color wartime photo fame, or a Saumur repaint?

And here is a Ardennes paint scheme;
