No Blitz ambulance there Tony .......... that was an Austin K2 ... and if you come to Corowa next year you will see one.

Actually in that film the film company were having traction problems and a local REME unit in Libya fitted CMP axles and transfer box to make it 4x4, and this is visible in the part where they are winding the ambulance up a sand dune
