EXHIBIT #32

SPZ 42-1 CARGO CARRIER                   FRANCE

 

This Spz was the very first armored vehicle built in Germany (West Germany to be exact) after WW2. This cargo carrier was a model of the Cc-2-55 cargo carrier from France made by the Hotchkiss Company. The big difference between this Spz and the later ones made for infantry-carrying is that this Spz has only 4 castors (wheels) rather than 5. Made in 1958, it served as an early major combat supply vehicle for West Germany. In 1962, the production of these Spz Cargo Carriers stopped and the Spz 42-1 was kept into service until recently replaced by newer cargo carriers. Its military life has ended, but it’s now being used by German civilians as a work-horse. (back-hoes, excavators, trucks, etc.)
