Derek,

Would it be from Russia? An Austin-Putilov armoured car, converted to half track by Kegresse.

Da Comrade!

WINNER!


Way to go Richard, I scoured the internet for an obscure vehicle hoping to confound all you experts for a while. Well it it worked for a few hours anyway!
Western sources called this the Austin-Kegresse. Initially, there was no mention of the vehicle in Russian documents, but by the Polish-Russian war of 1919 to 1921, the Soviets called it the "Russkiy Ostin" Putilov manufactured the armoured body, making it the Austin-Putilov-Kegresse.






:cheers: :salute: :drunk: CHIMO!
