Vehicle ID
This Police vehicle was in service with British forces in Shanghai in the mid late 1930 period.
Thus far, I have not been able to make a positive ID. For a number of reasons, I believe it is a British truck, type of tyres/type of 6X4 drive/right hand drive/style of body. Anyone have any ideas????????????? Bill

Vehicle
I agree it looks British - I'm thinking maybe Thorneycroft.

Hi Nuyt:
Yes, I know and it was never identified there either as well as I can remember. Th photo has now cropped up on another forum with the registration number blacked out. To my eyes, it seems to be a British 30 CWT 6X4 but I cannot match it to anything. It could also be American, as pointed out on your forum regarding other vehicles but I have not been able to come up with a match there either. If American, it must have used one of the then popular conversions from 4X2 to 6X4 drive. I am about to do some research in that direction hopefully later today. Bill
