Description: You are bidding on a FANTASTIC USED example of a 100% ORIGINAL German Wehrmacht BMW 325 Engine Bay Data Plate, as used specifically on the Kfz. 1, 2, 3 and 4 (le. g. Einheitz-PKW)! The light off-road passenger car was built by the BMW-Werk Eisenach under the designation BMW 325, as well as Hanomag (Typ 20 B) and Stoewer (Typ R 180 Spezial). The vehicles were used as troop carriers (Kfz. 1), by repair-and-maintenance squads (Kfz. 2/40), by artillery reconnaissance sonic measurement squads (Kfz. 3) and by troop-level aerial defence (Kfz. 4). Between 14.525[1] and 17.521 units[2] were built. Between 1940 and 1943, only Stoewer continued to build the R 200 Spezial without the four-wheel steering (Typ 40). The cars weighed 1,775 kg empty (1,700 kg without the four-wheel steering). 90% of all military branches rejected the vehicle as "unfit for wartime service" in a 1942 enquiry, while the much simpler, lighter and cheaper Volkswagen Kübelwagen proved to be far superior in basically every respect. Made of aluminum, this is a VERY RARE piece! Some slight marks and wear as it was removed from a vehicle abandoned at the factory, but no major damage or corrosion! All information is BLANK, which means it could be used on ANY current restoration project! It indicates the various weights, air pressures, oil types, fuel types, and quantities used! Located on the inside of the hood or engine bay, I have shown similar plates in the last images. Would be a PERFECT addition to any collection, display, or restoration project!
