I think, such vehicles were not so rare in Desert.

Hello "Armoured" Eduard(?) (we like to use real names on this forum)

See Captured F15 image for pictures of the real deal, as you say they were not rare, being converted by both the Germans and Italians.

Regards,
Hanno

Not that I know of. The Allies did have 2-pdr and 6-pdr Portees on CMPs.

Yes, they seemed to prefer Chev commercials for the captured Bredas. I guess they had their reasons.
