1/35 Panzerspaehwagen Marmon-Herrington ( E ) - IBG 35024

The IBG 1/35 Panzerspähwagen Marmon-Herrington (e) (IBG 35024) depicts a captured example of the Commonwealth's Marmon-Herrington armored car pressed into German service, marked with the "(e)" designation the Wehrmacht used for captured English/British-built equipment ("erbeutet" or English origin).

Better known as the Marmon-Herrington Armoured Car, this South African-developed series was based on a Ford 3-ton truck chassis sourced from Ford Canada, fitted with a four-wheel drive train from the American Marmon-Herrington company, UK-supplied armament, and a South African-built armored hull. In total, 5,746 Marmon-Herrington armoured cars were built and served widely with British and Commonwealth forces in North and East Africa.

Key Features:

• 1/35 scale injection molded plastic kit depicting the vehicle in German captured-equipment configuration
• Four-wheel drive chassis and detailed armored hull
• Decal sheet for period German markings on captured Allied equipment

Ideal For:

• Captured-equipment and Beutepanzer collectors
• North African theater diorama builders
• Modelers seeking an unusual, conversation-starting subject

The IBG 1/35 Panzerspähwagen Marmon-Herrington (e) is a fascinating, less-common subject for collectors interested in captured Allied vehicles in German service.
