The Horch Fire conversion vehicle has captivated me for years. And just recent (6 months ago) I found what the vehicle was, meaning for years I had been seeing it but, never knew what it was. Very odd vehicle. I've never really been much for fire vehicles but, this one might change that. It looks very close to what I've seen of the 1:1. The Berkeley on the other hand is a definite.
The Horch has also been shown on Goldvarg's website. Will we get two versions?
This happened when Autocult and Bizarre both released the Texaco streamlined tanker.
Nice stuff again. I've seen the Volvo Laplander recently online ...
... for some reason. Never seen one in person.
