Thornycroft KE/SC6 artillery tractor.
1) One example was ordered by the War Office ( Delivery data - 18.12.1933 ).
2) 12 vehicles were purchased by the Argentine Army on 17.7.1936. These vehicles differed from the original model in their wheel rims and mesh on the radiator grille. The mesh probably served as protection from insects or tall grass seeds.
3,4) Despite its small numbers, this truck was mentioned in the British and French press.

This is an earlier expedition with GUY "Roadless" trucks with removable tracks. He did half the expedition in the desert with the tracks on but found they were too slow so refitted the wheels.
