Good lead, thanks! The vehicle you depicted is a Fiat Iveco 6640 G, an Italian amphibious vehicle which was "built from the early 1950s till the 1980s for the Italian government organisations". Our subject vehicle may well have been a prototype for the Fiat Iveco 6640 G...

The Italian The National Fire and Rescue Service (https://www.vigilfuoco.it/aspx/Page.aspx?IdPage=5374) used a host of ex-WW2 vehicles during its existence: https://www.vigilfuoco.it/aspx/page.aspx?IdPage=2903
