First of all the Standard truck with early steel cab with easely build trailer from the spare parts...
Next one is a Maultier-vehicle; I used the late wooden cabine and the great Maco 3,7cm Flak 43. The Maultier suspension and tracks came from the MK 72 Marder, just with minor modifications.
An another Maulter, again with steel cab and Marder suspension, armed with a Flak 37.
Kit 72002 - DB L4500 S; Einheits-Holzfahrerhaus
Kit 72003 - German Einheitsanhänger - 3 ton
Most of the used parts came from MB L 4500, only axes are in Resin, quality quite ok, but again very, very poor documentation !
The quality of the pics is as bad as the original. - Albert Zrenner

Comments Albert Zrenner
MB L 4500 R Maultier very good details, but very poor documentation, only some handwritten remarks and sketches about the assembly of the chain drive, glued into the original chassis of the 4 wheel truck.
Some details missing or wrong, like rear wheel guard - not possible with chain, no info about new left side of motor hood etc. - Mr. Schatton told me via Mail, that in new boxes the correct instruction is included
I'm started with checking the manual and found it completely wrong ! Base of all "Maultier" was the type S (Standard), and not A (Allrad or 4 wheel drive).
First quick info for colleagues, with the instructions from Schatton you can spoil this kit. Also there are missing in one kit two small wheels no 86.
I will try to make some pics and sketches for correct building.
Pics of correct Maultier chassis: - front axle part A5 glued to leaf springs A3 & A4, no front drive ! Chain drive with parts from rear axle A9 & A10 glued to new parts 77 & 78 and A1
and then with new part 18 connect A10 to gear box of A1. - Kind regards, Zrenner Albert
