Some minor detail in the background?
I am always amazed at your powers of observation!

Probably nothing more than scrolling down and reading the comments:

"According to "The Golden Years of Trucking" published by the Ontario Trucking Association in 1976, this was a gas-electric four-wheel-drive truck built by the Commercial Motor Vehicle Co. of Windsor, Ontario. It had an electric motor on each wheel, was 20 feet long and had an 81-inch track. The four cylinder engine produced 20 HP. The truck was sent to England to visit "every town and village in the country." Because it was so underpowered it never made it out of London."

Such an amazing amount of design and engineering work, to end up as such a f. up!!
