Just finished initial build of two 1/35 Tamiya Flak 38 20mm AA artillery that I got from an eBay lot. I had the idea of having one of them being towed by a Kübelwagen that I got from a different lot, but when I put them together the trailer appears much wider than the Kübelwagen. So I gather that the Kübelwagen was too small to tow the Flak 38 and that such a task is better suited for a 251/x halftrack or maybe a Krupp Protze or Opel Blitz truck?? Any info appreciated. Thanks!

I have a few of those myself as far as a tow vehicle most trucks and halftracks would tow them I think the Kübelwagen would be to light to haul it myself.
 
The gun and trailer weighed in at almost 5000lbs. You need a substantial vehicle to haul this.
Post on ML, someone will know and have photos too.
