Hi,
if you are talking about the first image, then it is a: Truck, 15cwt, G.S. 4x4 Guy "Quad-Ant" next to a Guy F.A.T.
The cross-country rating on the 4x4 G.S. "Quad-Ant" is the same as the 4x2 G.S. "Ant". The Ants were basically manufactured from 3 tonner truck and bus parts, so are quite capable of carrying 1 ton on road. However, the Quad-Ant G.S. carried it's load higher than the Ant as it had 20" wheels, special axles (not of civ. origin) and weighed 1 ton more. Towing with the "Quad-Ant" G.S. was not recommended.
Correct me if I am wrong but I though it was mentioned somewhere that the G.S. "Quad-Ant" was made from left over FAT chassis. Guy Motors may have ended up with a less balanced vehicle than either the "Ant" or FAT.
Cheers,
Dave
