This should be one modified by the germans, but the squared cupola is different than the one I saw in Brussels Museum. Do you know any other surviving vehicle with the same configuration?

That looks to me like the versions manufactured for SS Polizei units?

Thanks for the feedback. That chennilette in Copenhagen is impressive.

Anyway, my question is still open, I would like to know if there are more with this configuration.

Sorry cannot be much more help - there are no more extant with this configuration as far as I know...

They only exist in WW2 images now and I have been collecting german UE conversion images for a while for a project.

Massimo,

It seems that the Copenhague, Trieste and Brussels ones are unique survivors

You can also find a example with Wurfrahmen 40 in Dresden :


I don't know any other heavily-modified UE..
