It seems to be a identical with the Lorry, 3-ton, 6-wh, Machinery "A".
This type has an entrance door on the left side and drop sides for work benches left and right (upper half hinges up as shown, lower half hinges down acting as work benches).
If you look closely, what seems to be a sidewalk must really be the lower body sill painted white.
The only deviation I can now see from the 6-wh Machinery "A" type is the spare mounted to the rear, this was normally carried inside the body (or on top of the cab on some other versions).
Hanno,
thanks for the info, yes, it helps a lot !
Can you post a good sideview of the "Machinery A" body ?
Oliver.
