We all know about the Allied surplus stock which ended up in all sorts of applications (like the DUKW used by an English resort's lifeguards, BR's and others' Amazon/Coles cranes, etc.) but what about the Axis stuff on the continent? Surely, some of it must have seen use, for so much to have survived? What of post-war production = I think I read somewhere that the Lancia 3RO was produced for a few years, while in Germany the NSU Kettenkrad was popular in farming and forestry.
