Does anyone have a reference that quotes how many RM it cost to produce the Krupp-Protze Kfz-69?

This link gives you some costs for various vehicles such as the Studabaker truck at $1,700 USD and a Sdkfz9 at just over $9,000. USD You can guess somewhere around $2,000 USD or so being a light truck with a 4 cylinder engine.

Thanks wrgmr1 for the link; however I'm skeptical of their numbers. For example, it says a Sd.Kfz.7 medium half track cost $9,024.00 USD

Conversion rates for RM – U.S. $ were pretty steady between 1935-1941, so assuming a conversion rate of 2.5 (it was anywhere between 2.48 to2.5 during that time), $9,024.00 USD would equal 22,560.00 RM

Achung Panzer, (a pretty reliable source) link has the cost of a Sd.Kfz.7 at 36,000.00 RM's (that's about 13,440.00 RM's off).
