    Hi. Pleased to have you here. The Austro-Hungarian trucks of WW1 are very interesting and i think technically very advanced. I hope that we can exchange information on the subject. I can only think of one survivor and that is the WAF, unless you know of any others?

    Hello Great War Truck,

     

    i know of an Austro Fiat Subventions truck. Very complete but not running. A friend of mine was driving Praga Batteriekommandantenwagen many years but has sold it to a collector where it sits in a garage. We had a lot of fun driving this powerful vehicle. And did sometimes sorts of small scale reenactment with it.

     

    I love to read your threads of restoring your trucks especially the instructive pictures how to do it.

     

    Regards

    Hello all,

     

    Freiwillige Motorfahrer Korps (Voluntary motor driver corps) was part of an organanisation to provide the Austrian Hungarian army with motorcars and drivers in the times before WW I. So you see my interest is in the Austrian-Hungarian motorisation and the companies producing vehicles from the beginning of the last century till the end of this companies. Vehicles of that age of Austrian-Hungarian origin are very rare here in Austria so love to read of restorations of such old vehicles especially when the so instructive as the threads by Great War Trucks.

    This is for me the main attraction of this interesting forum.

     

    Hope to read more of this interesting stuff

    Hello,

    maybe of interest but

    on ebay in Austria pictures of an Scammel Pioneer after the war in Austria are sold.

    It is not on the topic but as there are pictures of CP Fords too i will say that as far as i know Austria got some CP Fords after the war to overcome shortages of transportation of food.
