Opel Blitz "langhauber" 1952
 
     The 1952 Blitz was an excellent truck , affordable to buy , cheap to run and "rock" solid , with a big "slow" rev motor . It was a successfull model made between 1952 and 1959 in big numbers , for the time , almost 90000 .
     Different bodies and special equipment was made by Graaff  , Magirus , Miesen , Metz , Ziegler , etc , for firemen , police , ambulance , mobile showroom , etc .
 
     Talking about Blitz "lg" modeltrucks in 1/87 scale we must think about Wiking in the first place . This maker made the "lg" from 1957 , first year in catalogue , until now , in 4 different body types and lots of color variants and liveries . Brekina start making the "lg" in the 90's and now we have more than 120 different body / liveries variants . This Brekina model is very good , with accurate lines and in 5 different bodies , normal truck  , with or without canvas , van , chassis and open or closed beverage truck . The following pictures are the last models I have bought .
 
     Below every truck there is the reference , but I am not 100% sure about them .
