Rlangham Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Here's some pictures and updates on a mates 1944 Kettenkrad he's restoring, it was found in a barn near Falaise! http://www.easyfreeforum.com/viewforum.php?f=1229&eff=504&sid=e45e9421e69a9b2d6cd9c42a449f2abe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashley Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 As long as you can appreciate that they were also built postwar (i believe the number was 500) some went to Switzerland but most ended up in America (Oregon?? forestry service springs to mind) Ashley I like those vehicles.

Rlangham Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Fantastic little vehicle, it's a late one so it doesn't have the other headlamp above the notek one on the front forks. Turns out the owner bought it off a guy that lives literally down the road from me who has five of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be that much of a problem. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRADRIDER Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I read in Decembers 2006 edition of classic MV mag that in 2001 someone went for a long walk far up in the Bieszczady mountain looking for mushrooms, where they found lying disgaurded in a bush an NSU HK 101 Kettenkrad, imagine that!! most people spend vast fortunes and time looking to unearth a rusty wreck and these lucky folk were just out collecting mushrooms.

sirhc Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 What kind of mushrooms were they? Was the KK still there after the effects had worn off?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRADRIDER Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Well.........dont know about this one apparently if you dig up or find a vehicle or gun or whatever in Poland you have to hand it in to the government who restore it and put them in museums, realising that they are worth vasts amount of money probably most end up in barnes around Poland being slowly restored by enthusiastic poles hoping one day to reap the rewards. As it caries a long spell incarcerated in prison for defrauding the government for not handing it in , they've probably dumped it as far away from where they live at the top of a tall mountain. You can just imagine the couples conversation on the way home....'if anybody stops us Marek, just say we were looking for mushrooms!
