And another Desert Wreck

[Richard Farrant]

Kuno,

I have looked at your other pictures and note that there is no cupola in the cab roof, most military trucks had them, and I seem to think it has a double roof, as often supplied for tropical use. It was a 6 wheeler as the trunnion shaft for the rear axles, is still in place. The wheelbase is very short which to me denotes an artic (semi) tractor unit. The wreck has certainly been robbed bare.

I still seem to think AEC although the cab is slightly longer than a standard truck. More likely something to do with oilfield work.
