What are the chances they are one and the same vehicle ?

I would love to know for certain...

Cheers

Phill
Nigel, do you have a higher resolution copy of the picture from your book? What is the source, might there be other identifying pics in the series?

Phil, Could post a comparison shot from the same angle to confirm the ID?

PS the name of the Fort is Capuzzo. It copped a bit of artillery and chipped part of the name in the masonry.
