The image title Wksp Tlr NZ 23625 suggests that the former ZPI radar trailer had been converted to some kind of military mobile workshop. The original roof mounted antenna has been removed and a spare tire mounted at the rear. Possibly one of the units sold to the Aussies in 1943 and later found its way to NZ ?

Attached are images from MLU member Servicepub's ( aka Clive Law ) collection showing another conversion. No details available about this one, either. Looks like the kind of trailer you would find on a AA practice firing range or Experimental Weapons Proving Ground. A positive identification would be nice to have.

Cheers Brian
