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.

The title Workshop trailer was an error on my part i scanned the pictures and had made an assumption on its actual use
