Do you know if the trucks were bought from Romania? Are there any more WWII trucks in Romania? I saw once a, few years, ago a Russian Ford truck restored do you know anything about it?

I don't know any other trucks, sorry only this one (from Recas fire brigade) in plus .... This post has been edited by AUTOMOBILIA on March 10, 2006 06:17 am

Steyr 220 Std light cross country car KFZ1 built by BMW amongst others. Behind that car is a Tatra T93 built for Romania Next is another few Tatra T93 vehicles And, of course, the VW. Bill

It could be a unit symbol. Take a look at the discussion in the thread on “All terrain” commandment and liaison vehicles.

Automobilia: I find it very hard to tell the difference between a 200 and a 220 as I think the major difference was the engine, not the coachwork and the photo we are seeing is not very helpful. Anyway, we have the marque correct Bill

I know that is off topic but I can't resist , I must to present you one of the most beautiful pictures from my collection (18Mai1919-Calimanesti-with a signature Petcu) This post has been edited by AUTOMOBILIA on March 11, 2006 07:32 am

[C. Bujor's coll.]

Does the SA around the cipher of Queen Maria stand for Serviciul de Ambulanţă or something similar?

How should one read the registration number on the side of the truck? What does M.R. stand for? What about the D. right above the number 2746?

In 1917 it was installed at Onesti. Her cipher was painted on the vehicles sides. It was equipped with several dozens of motor vehicles. M.R. could mean "Ministerul de Razboi" ("Ministry of Defence")
