1941 KDF82 project

[crx1991]

Good evening! In this thread, I intend to show the restoration of parts that I have, and which will be collected in the future. I made two exact copies of the KDF 82 hull. I got the fragments of a car destroyed during the war on June 26, 1941 Belarus.

In Italy, I bought these headlights. According to the seller, these headlights are exactly what I need for a 1941 KDF 82

Wow, That is great.
I have always wanted one, Thought about doing a VW Thing and call it a day , But never pursued it as its get's a little hot here and those don't have AC
So you fabricated the body for this??
I'll be following this thread!!

very nice workmanship!

At the beginning I wanted to buy a case in the Czech Republic. But then I decided to produce it myself. I have a sheet metal thickness of 1.1 mm. I took the surviving fragments and made exact copies of the dies for stamping with a press. The chassis has already been copied too.

A colleague Peter approached me. He is a reliable supplier of these Auto tires, for KDF 82. He liked my first Prototype, KDF82 housings,
I bartered parts for my cars. My prototype went to Germany. The client is unknown. But on the other hand, I have accumulated experience in reproduction of the KDF82 corps. And I still have two in stock. These are old photos from 2015, and of poor quality.

You sir, are a real craftsman. Good luck with your project. I will follow with interest.

Friends! I am glad that the topic of KDF 82 is interesting. I will be glad to share my knowledge and tell everyone
to you about their developments. Once again, I apologize for my terrible English translation.

You are a very skilled craftsman. Well done!
