The Italian photo is an official German agency one from the look of it. My apologies for not showing the reverse.

... hmm, not really, Mike.
It says: "Geb. Rgt. 98. Britische Beutewagen Morris sind viel besser als unsere." Translation: "Mountain Regiment 98. British captured Morris cars are much more better than ours."

BTT with an interesting photo found on Axis History Forum > Axis Equipment > The Ron Klages Panzers & other vehicles> Soft Skin Vehicle Photo Repository. On the left on the picture below we see a Canadian Ford F15 4x2 with Cab no.11, many of which were captured in France, the Balkan and Africa in the early stages of the war.
This one is definitely an Umbauwagen as the rear cargo body seems to be replaced by one with higher sides, an open front or side access, possibly to let soldiers (dis)mount. The fixed cab roof was also replaced by an integral canvas cover over the driver's area plus the rear body. Trafficators were added and the headlights have been replaced by "civilian" units. The front bumper is missing. Wish we could see more of this truck....

No wonder they lost the war. They were all so short!

Tony
Much less room to turn in, over there. Over here in Kalgoorlie, the streets are nice and wide. I'm just waiting for the locals to grow some grass on their road frontages
