While looking for other 1:18 vehicles on ebay and wondered about this:

Of course these cars need to be painted, but will work for your 1:18 collection if you need one.

Went to German Ebay and found another car that can be used. 1937 BMW 327 2 dr. hard top. The car would need to be repainted of course and the wheel skirts removed. I have seen original pics of these cars in the German during WW II. Will post pics later.
