Austro-Daimler ADGZ


This HO 1/7 scale kit is by WSW-Modellbau. I usually get my high end European resin models from Fidelis Models in California. Randy and I have known each other for 25 years so I like to buy from him when I can.





This is a quick easy build with no flash. Check out those gills on the front end, all part of the hull.



This armored car was also called the Steyer.









These armored cars were made in Austria before Germany took them over.





After the war started several more were made for the SS and the German police.


Mine will probably end up in police units.

Amazing model!


You sure don't see ADGZ's much, model or otherwise.

It is an unusual kit. They are also called Steyer armored cars. There are a lot of photos of them on the Internet.

I have seen some photos in books, but you just don't see them many places in gaming

Maybe we will now.

It's a very well made model, no flash. I built three of them.
