Mariano Paz reported all the front axles were removed to be used by manufacturers of 4x4 rice harvester machines

That's an interesting conversion to the beetle back....room for 2 or 3 spare wheels, extra bins and racks. interesting to see. It does look like a very nice and straight truck.
Thanks for sharing these pictures Mariano.

This spare wheel carrier is a upgrade made by our army in the 1950s.
