Ironsides, that appears to be a difficult case. As http://www.landships.freeservers.com/fsf_mitt_feldwagen_kitreview.htm states, it is difficult to determine whether any vehicle existed under that designation.
A standard vehicle was the Packwagen c/87. Towed by two horses, wheelbase was 1665 mm, weight 850 kg, I don't have any further data.
Another standard vehicle was the Feldwagen c/95. It could be adapted for many purposes. Data: empty weight 500 kg, length (sans drawbar) 3695 mm, width 1530 mm, height incl. tarp 2120 mm.
Later, the Kleiner Feldwagen 16 (Typ 05) and the Schwerer Feldwagen (Typ 05) were added. I was unable to find any Mittlerer Feldwagen information.
Schwerer Feldwagen data: towed by a team of four, empty weight 750 kg, max. load 1000 kg, total capacity 2 cubic metres, 4200 (sans drawbar) x 1850 x 2100 mm. This model was adapted by the Wehrmacht as schwerer Heeresfeldwagen Hf 2. Wheel diameter of the Hf 2 (and probably the Schwerer Feldwagen as well) was 1224 mm, wheel width 70 mm.

For WW2 vehicles (which often originated from WW1 ones), you might want to have a look at http://old.ifem.at/linkhf1.htm http://forum.panzer-archiv.de/viewtopic.php?t=8841 http://www.project1944.be/Erfa/Erfa_new.html http://www.modellversium.de/kit/artikel.php?id=291 http://www.superborg.de/hdv398.htm
