British army trucks of the 30s. Identification

[David Herbert]

I think the term you are looking for is "radiator guard" ? As you say the Romanian one does look as if it was delivered on much narrower tyres but has been fitted with bigger ones onto the original wheels. It must have been a struggle to fit them as I doubt that the original rims are two piece split rims like the standard WD wheels in your last photo.

You are doing very good work bringing all these photos together in one place. It is a very ignored subject, partly because there are very few of these trucks still in existance. Of course many were lost at Dunkirk and the rest were worked to death.
