Mystery Wagon

It's an aircraft engine (V-12) transport box.

It's designed to be easy to position and access to engine, but it's not meant to be an engine stand to do major work on it.

Check out DB, more likely Jumo, engine manuals. You will find it there.

Can you post a photo of an engine in the wagon? Is the engine hung from below on the swing out device?

some closeups after cleaning.. its clearly handpainted.. and the other side that was facing up has the most corroscion.. but still it has survived quite well..

now just to get the finance and the support of doing a full size digg with diggingmachine.. NOW that would turn up some good parts i guess

you dont want heavy machinery there. treat it like an archeological site. just a bunch of warbird lovers like yourself with shovels and brushes. start a club...your project would be digging up all these planes. i know of 2 gents in norway that might be very interested in joining you in this.
