Hi George,
That's not an Olds but a 1939 Hudson. Great photo.

I'm looking for photos of Ford GPA (Seep) in german service - anyone seen or own anything like this?

Hi George,
Thanks for posting this photo of a very rare Vickers Light Tank Mk. IV. Only about three dozen were produced, with most kept at home for training. Just a handful ended up with the BEF in France and eventually fell into German hands where they were renamed Leichter Panzerkampfwagen Mk.IV 734(e).

Hi Max
thank you for the identification. You saved me some time to research.
Here more pictures of this rare vehicle from the same seller.

Regards
Armin

I believe these to be Vickers Dutchmen rather than the Light MkIV as there is a second idler which had been done away with on the Mk IV. There are also differences in the turret and main body of the tank.

Still rare vehicles though and these are great pictures.

Hi Tadportly1
after some checking I think you are right. The second return roller
is the identifier of the Vickers Mk III.
Thanks for the correction.

Regards
Armin
