Cosmopolitan Vehicle
Hi Rich - as the title suggests you have a very cosmopolitan vehicle. Pommie truck with an Italian shell casing steering wheel centre. A very interesting combination of histories.

"Do you think this qualifies as Trench Art? ....."
Mate, It's a Chump: the whole she-bang qualifies as 'Trench Art'! (But that's just my twisted opinion....) Mike C

The Wikipedia article I linked to above provides a pic of an existing example at CFB Borden. While more probably linked to the Italian Campaign rather than North Africa, the Canadian example appears to have non-original wheels. Does anyone think they look like inside-out Carrier wheels? Compare to the AWM pic of the 7 spoke originals.

Mortified
Rich - I am mortified that you would think I would make a disparaging remark about your unique vehicle that has five reverse gears. They only had those gears to confuse the enemy.
