Büssing-NAG Type 500 (G), as of 1940: Type 500 S

The Büssing-NAG type 500 was manufactured from 1938 to 1941. Commencing in 1940, it was designated Büssing-NAG type 500 S. It was propelled by a six-cylinder, 105 HP diesel engine and had a payload of 4.75 tons. At first, vehicles made for the Wehrmacht had the open standard driver’s cab.

The Büssing-NAG type 500 S was identifiable by seven louvres in the side plates of the engine bonnet. Later, vehicles manufactured for the Wehrmacht had the production line driver’s cab. These vehicles were identifiable by additional stowage boxes under the platform and additional loops for lashing the tarpaulin.

This Büssing-NAG type 500 S is most probably a Sauerstoff- und Stickstoff-Erzeugungs- kraftwagen (Kfz. 44). The rearward section of the superstructure was similar to the Sauerstoff-Umfüllgerät 10-50 A of the Luftwaffe.
