In one of the unsorted boxes at the auction, the buyer returned this to me guessing (correctly) that I would have kept it if I had come across it! Can anyone help in ID of which vehicle this came off?

Further to what David and Tony mentioned, here's a picture of such a Thornton 2-Axle Drive conversion, in this case fitted to a Canadian Truck, 3-ton, 6x6, Crash Tender (Ford/Marmon-Herrington MM5-6). These were used in pre/early WW2 conversions.

Awfully nice of the buyer to return it to you!
