Anyone pick what this is the inside of?

Hmmm
 
It's GM and very Fox-like, but not quite. Maybe the rare Australian Rhino?

BINGO Give the man a prize!

The back of the photograph says it's the Rhino armoured personnel carrier mockup.

Prize?

No, I couldn't possibly.

The give away was the GM instruments and the unique Fox parking brake lever. What also gave it away was that the Rhino used a vision slot (seen to the driver's right) borrowed from a Bren carrier. Every other attemt you Australians made to produce an armoured car was based on a Ford chassis. I have found some pictues of that 'merican F-15A scout car' and will post shortly.

Please see attached picture of a Rhino, oriented correctly I trust:

Mr Parker it is not necessary(sp?) to invert the photos for us in the southern hemisphere. Our monitors are all ready up the other way

Mr. Eades:

I am sure even now you are inverted to our perspective, upside down if you will, looking at a corrected image on a reversed screen, which is to say...aw, I give up!!
