chris40 ◊ 2010-07-24 16:06	@130rapid: good question. Do we classify vehicles as what they are or what they're pretending to be? All the WW2 Blitz Ambulances I found on Google Images were simply converted trucks.
130rapid ◊ 2010-07-24 16:25	I jumped the gun here :X /vehicle.php?id=320524 because truly (rare) Żuk A1806 ambulance looks that: http://www.czerwonesamochody.com/details.php?image_id=2644 We have same difficulty with Skoda 1200/1201 wagons. Sometimes they are plain wagons playing ambulance, sometimes truly ambulances. -- Last edit: 2010-07-24 17:00:53
130rapid ◊ 2010-07-24 16:26	I think the Red Cross only doesn't make ambulance yet.

130rapid ◊ 2010-07-24 17:01	Now is better.
