German frames needed

what would be ideal is the old Sears JC Higgins mens 3 speed frame(Austrian), or ANY German made diamond shaped frame.,,i make wehrmacht fahradden, the reenactors (ww2 German types) want the bikes and the Swiss army bike is a dead ringer but very expensive and hard to find, let me know if you have any frames or bikes, typically they would have had fenders and a rack and a generator light. ilike to use 3peed wheels in the rear so that there is a chance you could actually pedal up these hills, remember the soldat would have been carrying lots of stuff plus a mauser 98k, in a pinch i could even use a derailleur bike wheel the system first came out in about 1918! my two bikes have a rack to carry a panzerfaust and i made some of those out of pvc and they fire bottle rockets, lol

Capture some Raleigh DL-1's and rebadge them as war prizes.

Funny. I have a nice old JC Higgins frame that I made into a 3 speed. Rode it in the Marin Century back when I was younger.
