    Well, I got several hundred pictures early 2009. Many Blitz pictures, some maybe's and also a lot certainly other makes. What to do with it? Well I decided to share the puzzle of these other busses with you. See wehrmachtbusses and be amazed as I was by the wealth of pictures people send me. It took me a long time to find the form in which I could manage all that information. But I'm back at it.

    First to update is a lot of new info on the cabrio's, some models and on Ludewig streamliners.
