Oliver,
It looks like a Mack EXBX 18 ton 6x4 tank transporter.

Thanks again, Richard, great.
The Cab shape matches the one on the only two photos I possess [Vanderveen].
Can anybody send me some other shots of the Mack, as the "Tank named Stalin" is awaiting its undercarriage...
TIA,
Oliver.

Mack EXBX with Valentine II tank,

... as it could have looked like in Birmingham some 63 years ago.

And here is the Soviet ambassador, Ivan Maisky :
