Authentic reproduction of a historical vehicle

The Trattore Autocaro Sahariana AS.37 is a light off-road truck manufactured by SPA-Viberti in Italy between 1941 and 1943. This vehicle was specifically designed for Italian units fighting in North Africa. Thanks to its long range and cargo capacity, it played an important role in desert operations, including the battles of El Alamein. The AS.37 featured four-wheel drive and a simplified construction, making quick repairs possible in desert conditions. After the war, vehicles of this type remained in use by Italian forces and Yugoslav partisans during local conflicts.
