I'm looking for large scale drawings of the Belgian Minerva Armoured Car, circa 1914, preferably in 1/32nd scale.  Can anyone suggest a suitable model car kit to work off of?


Thanks!!!

I have a great interest in Belgian Armoured Cars as well, But I have never ran across any drawings of either the Minerva, or the SAVA. I have a good collection of photos, if this will help, I can send some to you.
All the Best

As far as I know, it is correct.
Very nice drawing. Now, I have to find a kit.

There were two sources of Minerva armored vehicle


1. In the field conversions of existing touring cars belonging to Belgian officers and
2, Factory built using the chasis intended for Minerva touring cars - these were initially built at the Minerva factory itself but after the Germans occupied it most Minerva armored vehicles were in fact Fabrique en Francais (where licences for building and use of the Minerva chasis existed).

Does anyone know to which category this drawing belongs?
