However, with the outbreak of WWII, all manufacture of the Volkswagen was immediately turned to military production. In January 1938, German Defense Forces presented specifications for a military version of this practical vehicle. In November of that same year, a prototype was completed and it was officially designated Pkw. K1 \"Kubelwagen\" Type 82. The vehicle used a light but sturdy monocoque construction with foldable canvas top. With its reliable engine and heavy duty suspension, the Kubelwagen immediately came to be used by every unit, from the scorching desert of Africa to the frozen Russian Eastern Front. About 51,000 Kubelwagens, including several variations, were rolled out from the factory by the end of WWII. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBasic Specifications:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n- Overall length: 79mm \u003cbr\u003e\n- Overall width: 33.5mm \u003cbr\u003e\n- Perfect for people who want to create realistic dioramas with their 1\/48 scale planes. \u003cbr\u003e\n- The form of the actual Kubelwagen has been accurately replicated. \u003cbr\u003e\n- Every characteristic of a late production Kubelwagen such as short rear fenders has been reproduced. \u003cbr\u003e\n- Comes with decals for 4 different markings including 3 vehicles from the Luftwaffe. \u003cbr\u003e\n- The interior has been replicated down to the finest detail. \u003cbr\u003e\n- Front doors come as separate parts and can be attached in opened or closed position. \u003cbr\u003e\n-Set includes 2 figures in standing position, one holding a map and the other giving instructions just before flight. \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\nSuggested Paint Colors \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTS-3 - Dark Yellow \u003cbr\u003e\nX-11 - Chrome Silver \u003cbr\u003e\nX-18 - Semi Gloss Black \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-1 - Flat Black \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-10 - Flat Brown \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-15 - Flat Flesh \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-16 - Flat Aluminum \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-2 - Flat White \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-49 - Khaki \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-50 - Field Blue \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-53 - Neutral Grey \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-56 - Metallic Grey \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-59 - Desert Yellow \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-60 - Dark Yellow \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-61 - Dark Green \u003cbr\u003e\nXF-64 - Red Brown\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Batcave Comics n Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49425472291056,"sku":"Tam32501","price":212.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/2365\/9600\/files\/2fd41e94032010d389540d7275686982.jpg?v=1774335455","url":"https:\/\/www.batcave.co.za\/products\/tamiya-1-48-german-kubelwagen-type-82","provider":"Batcave Comics n Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
