SdKfz. 221 – Private collection, Vermelles (France) – Running condition

This vehicle was previously part of the 39-45 Museum in Roscoff (France), which closed its doors. The entire museum was sold to a

collector who lives near Vermelles (Northern France). ** The Horch chassis was recovered shortly after the war by a mechanic, from

the area of Sizun in Britanny (France), where it was left by the German army in 1944. In the 1970s, this chassis was bought by the

owner of the Roscoff 39-45 museum, who restored it. Original SdKfz 223 armour plates have also been discovered (engine cover and

turret plates). The hull/turret were reconstructed with these plates and new steel, which makes this vehicle mostly a replica

(information from the previous owner)
