February 15, 20196 yr Author comment_568375 More goodies arrived today!Gen II Mini Vintage Air!I ordered it with the traditional controls to see if I could make them work. I may end up with the modern dial type as they are slimmer. Will have to see if this can be made to work.

Â BOSCHÂ In the last years of the war, no new German tank ever drove without the starter elements from the Bosch factory in Hildesheim. Bosch also had a monopoly position in the outfitting of German Luftwaffe aircraft. Nissan (owner of The Prince Motor Company).

February 15, 20196 yr Author comment_568403 You need to fire your ammo more frequently? Getting kind of old lookingSent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobileYes and no. The ammo was turned in by one of my techs. They find it in the bottom of the turrets all the time. It has been around a while....But no, the issue is with the AC system. Keep looking.

February 15, 20196 yr Author comment_568404 And Blue is right, a lot of the companies we know and love were suppliers to the German war machine. Much as GM et al were here in North America. My dad was employed with Cominco mine in Kimberley BC, who supplied most of the lead used by the allies in both world wars.
