Hello from Mike ,
I have always been an admirer of the Mar=
mon Herrington conversions that were done to various Fords.

Here, in Australia the army aquired abou=
t 600 1940-41 30cwt Ford Marmon-
Herringtons , mainly for use as artillery tractors. A few restored exampl=
es exist, the 18 inch tyres being a hard to find item.
I also know of a restored 1/2 ton Ford =
Marmon -herrington 4X4 , fitted with a open cab and the "Jailbar " grill.

Are there many other examples surviving =
in other countries ?

The Aust. army types were fitted with =
a soft-top roadster type cab with half
doors. I think these cabs were only made here .

Hoping to hear from anyone else with =
an interest in Marmons.

Bye de Mike . vk3cz@sympac.com.au
