General Background
These trucks started out as a two-wheel drive vehicle and eventually evolved into four-wheel drive. The 4X2 vehicles were designated Type S (S- Standard). From 1937 to 1944 approximately 140,000 of these trucks were manufactured in 127 sub-variants. By simply changing the body these trucks became cargo and troops transports, fire engines, fuel tenders, ambulances and more. Towards the end of WWII steel became a scarce in Germany so the cabs were made from wood and pressed card that were called “Ersatz”
