Default portee

Hi David, The portee on page 96 in the Military Vehicles of WW2 by John Church could possibly be the Gs version.After enlarging the photo, there are no ramps showing above the canvas or on the base hinges. The sides around the wheel arch are enclosed not showing any frame work. One of the amo boxes has been removed and replaced petrol and oil can holders, no winch handle or shaft from the winch are showing. The picture does not show any cable rollers on the front bumper, the ends of which are painted white. There is only one head light with a blackout cover. The camo looks european This conversion retains the lorry number L4594778 not the H cheers Dick
