Who’s got the next question, i’m waiting.
My dear Mr Malarz, you have the relay.
The TNSPE type 34 (produced in 1936) is the right answer. (The ones built in 1937 looked a bit different)
Who’s turn is it? I’m lacking my usual unanswerable question…
It’s Mr Malarz’s turn to post.
Hello, y’all!
Sorry, I totally had a brain fart and forgot!
Here’s one to try:

Hello, Churchill!
I tried… I don’t know why now it enlarges it by 4 times. I give up.
My Gosh…I can almost fit in the drivers seat!:mrgreen:
FAMO prototype???
All I can say is it was made in 1667 :mrgreen:
Hi.
It´s a british Vauxhall BT prototype, a copy of the german SdKfz 8 series. 6 were built in 1944/45 and the “BT6” on the engine cover indicates that it is the last prototype vehicle.

Heya, Tom!
You got it! It’s the Bedford (a division of Vauxhill) Tracat (TRAcked Artillery Tractor). Pretty much a copy of Germany’s solution, it was complicated and expensive compared to the Bedford QLB 74 x 4 truck.
Give us a good 'un, Tom

German, WWI era?
Methinks Austrian…
Nope.
Even though I also thought at first it was the national marking of the First Austrian Republic (1918-1934) It’s actually the Coat of Arms of the German Reich, as used untill 1918 (note the crown on the eagle, and the fact it’s not holding anything in it’s claws).
If that is indeed the case, it would suggest the picture was taken early in WW1 or even pre-war, since we know later German vehicles had as national insignia the stylised version of the Eisenes Kreuz (Iron Cross) that is still in use with the Bundeswehr today.
As far as the vehicle is concerned, It’s obviously an early prototype armored car of some sort, but since there were a bewildering variety of such vehicles used in WW1 the exact type unfortunately still eludes me.
I was right!:shock: Except who knows what the vehicle was?
Armored VIP vehicle perhaps? Maybe they got careful after Ferdinand was shot >.>
Can’t see that much detail…
Anyone? Malarz, Librarian, Sergej???
I’ll guess either a messed up Ehrhardt BAK armoured car, or an even more messed up Ehrhardt E-V/4 armoured car.
For Heaven’s sake, honorable ladies and gentlemen – an Opel halbgepanzerter Wagen (Opel semi-armored car) from 1906. in our WW2 armored mystery-thread? I am really astonished…
But never mind that – here you have a direct link connected with this semi-armored rarity:

In the meantime, I am watching my old copy of family musical favorite Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. You know… just for a little stimulation while searching for my next mystery.
