Ford V 3000 G188TS. Interestingly, Ford USA supplied engines and other vital components to Ford Germany during WWII. -- Last edit: 2007-02-23 12:56:22 |

But they stopped after the US entered the war, didn't they? Is that a genuine Wehrmacht truck or a post-war version? |

They did not! When Germany ran out of essential supplies in 1944, Ford USA even INCREASED deliveries by shipping over 4,000 complete chassis! It is genuine. The Ford factories got severely hit towards the end of the war and what was left was dismantled and taken to the Soviet Union as war reparation. Production of these trucks never resumed. -- Last edit: 2007-02-23 13:27:50 |
