Default Unknown "Marmon-Herrington" armoured car version

As stated before the Dutch East Indies Army received 49 South African reconaissance cars Mk3's in february 1942. These cars were known to the British Army (incorrectly) as Marmon-Herrington Armoured cars.
The desert conversions of the Mk2's have been well noted, but take a look at this KNIL version: a Vickers air cooled (ex-aircraft) mmg in a newly created front position left to the driver. An unknown number of cars were modified in this way in the Dutch East Indies.
See also the "foreign built armoured car" page on:
Overvalwagens!

Kind regards,
