The Angle Iron framework looks reminiscent of the "Tracked Truck, 1 ton". Could this be one version in the development stages utilising the running gear of the 2pdr/3in mortar carrier (which were obsolete by the time development on the Tracked Truck came around)? The Tracked Truck was eventually a LHD vehicle with the engine and gearbox on the right side of the driver and driving a straight driveshaft to a Chev axle from a C15. Could this change be a result of the very impractical gearshift as fitted to the 2pdr/3in carriers?
