Guy in Copenhagen better beware...

[GrauGeist]

...or else he's likely to get his SdKfz2 stolen by BikerBabe!

NSU Kettenkrad: German ATV of World War II is still going strong

 

[vikingBerserker]

LMAO, nice!

 

[RabidAlien]

Sweet!!!! That's on my Christmas list this year!

 

[evangilder]

Cool vehicle, although I wouldn't have been crazy driving that into combat with petrol tanks on either side of me like that!

 

[Gnomey]

Certainly wouldn't of done that either Eric. Still a cool vehicle and I bet it doesn't last long in is hands once Maria sees this.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Cool ride!! I'll bet it gets some looks.

 

[Njaco]

Kewl!

 

[BikerBabe]

Awesome, I'll be on alert, camera at the ready!
Hmmmmm, the license plate is visible...*searches*

Bitchen... "Mud Buster"

 

[Maestro]

I'm surprised that...

1 - He is allowed to drive this in the streets.
2 - Nobody has stolen it from him yet. (I don't know back in the day, but nowadays military vehicles don't have keys to start them up, just a simple on/off switch.)

looks like the tracks are rubber so it wouldnt tear up the road. would be interesting to ride.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I was thinking the same thing Bobbysocks.

 

[Lucky13]

So, if I put rubber on the tracks, I'm allowed to drive my Kingtiger on the streets and roads, aye?

 

[bobbysocks]

that would raise a few eyebrows wouldnt it?

pop out of the top and ask, "vich vay ist london?"

Here's a cool vintage video (english narration) of the NSU being manufactured and field tested:

Lucky, not only would you have to install rubber pads on the tracks but you would have to pay to upgrade all of the bridges and overpasses to sustain the weight.

 

[Lucky13]

True! Besides....road tax would probably kill me!

 

[Airframes]

Wouldn't have any parking problems though!

 

[RabidAlien]

Make sure you only load AP rounds....HE will land you a very hefty fine. But, AP comes in handy during those pesky rush-hour jams.

 

[Lucky13]

Rush-hour jams??
