Body was the same as on pictures . with crew seats behind driver , and plenty storage room in the back , also had german WW2 style rear lights .

An automated translation learns this is a hose tender truck for the Danish Civil Defence forces ("Civilforsvaret", or C.F.). They were know as "Brandudrykningsvogn" or Fire emergency truck. Seating 1 driver plus 9 firefighters. The vehicles were purchased used after the war and rebuilt in Denmark by I/S Karofa, who converted 36 of them. They were in service from 1978 till 1982.

"Unboxing Danish Civil Defense Backpack Tool Kit" - great, it even has a British pattern entrenching tool.

[Niels V]

These where a two part set, normally these where laying in storage at different distribution points in case of an national emergency.
Yes CF had piles of entrenching tools, easily identified by an additional CF stamp.
