Bill:
Your first is a Morris CS8
Second is a very unusual pair. I believe the first is definitely British and probably the second. Cannot ID the first, but the second could be a Fordson. If not it is probbly a French Peugot.
Third is a Morris C8, successor to the CS8
Will revert when I have better answers on the others.
Cheers

Hi Sander:

Your second picture is most likely a Thornycroft WZ/TC4/
Your third photo is actually a Canadian CMP I think a 15-CWT. I can never tell the Fords from the Chevs unless I see the front grille but it is one or the other. The photo is well known so maybe I can find something on it elsewhere.
Keep them coming.
Cheers

Bill,

Take a deep breath and have a look ,no i'm kidding ,just have a look.

I found some interresting picture ,a mistery vehicle to be solved!!!.

You know the firts picture i believe???, it has past manny forums with no results have a look at the following pictures.

Is it based on de bedford cwt 15 chassis,if you look closely at the rectangle frond nose of the vehicle.

Thanks Frantzl for the info on that book. It will be ordered very soon.

This must be like an old map with many white areas on...

And the Bedfords with the armor is just greate!!

Another photo from e-bay whrere they all seems to come from. Just pitty they are to expensive for us who will share them....

Morning Sander:

As to your armoured vehicle, I have tagged that as a Bedford from the beginning but there seems to be no consensus with others. For me they are Bedfords and will remain so. I think Rolf agrees
and he knows a lot more about British vehicles than I do.

For Rolf: What the hell is that thing in your last photo? I know it is a water carrier of some sort but cannot figure out what vehicle.

I am quite sure it is a Morric Commercial CS8 on my last photo.
You can se it has a split axel, and the little you see of the front fender, shows it ends much higher than on Bedford and Ford WOT..

The armoured ones, I also agree that they are Bedfords, you can se the banjo axels ....

Greate photo of GMC Sander!
Here si another US vehicle..

Greate photos agaian!
Notice how the side armour has been cut so it "slopes down" to the reare..

Here is another Carrier. Don't know much abouth weapons but isn't this a 37 mm on top of it?

But where is all the photos of Morris Commercials and umbau CMP's?? I have a few CMP's and one of them would love to be restored as an umbauwagen like one of the F15's in the start of this topic. My Morris Commercial, has not dessided yet what she want....
