What's the story behind this particular version? Was this done just for the movie? Were there actual Opel Blitzes modified in this fashion in the war? -- Last edit: 2009-07-05 02:57:51

Ingo ◊ 2009-07-05 12:17	"bebußt"? Das ist aber sehr altertümlich und heute unbekannt. Obwohl: wer weiß, was noch alles im Beamtentum schlummert. Das Wort sollte aber nicht mit dem Bayrischen "abbusseln" verwechselt werden. Auch wenn beides von Polizisten gemacht werden kann...
