Great War truck Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Well it was a Priest, but looks like it was converted into a Kangaroo. This was done to a number of them after Normandy when the Priests were generally withdrawn, but there was a need for armoured personnel carriers. If it is one i would say that it was probably a unique survivor. Tim (too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Well it is a Priest but an M7B2 which is a post-war mod with an elevated mount to allow higher angles of elevation so I would imagine it's more likely to be a driver training vehicle.

mcspool Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 (edited) It is an M7B2, but without its gun. H. Edited April 13, 2009 by mcspool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tichenor Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 As already said M7B2. Any clues where the pictuers are taken? I believe it's an ex-German Priest thats been demilitarized. It has what I think is a German licenceplate and the mounting off the headlights on the differential housing. The holes in the hull could be from the German DeMil demands. Some of those ex-range wrecks did come available recent. Michel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Glasser Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Many years ago in the very late '60's, a couple of mates and I visited a small salvage yard in Fordingbridge, Hampshire. There were a couple of '60's Pontiac ambulances there which we were interested in. No one came out so we had a look around. At the back almost covered by the undergrowth there was, I believe, a Sherman, and close by a Bren gun carrier. Is this a figment of my imagination, or does anyone know of these, or those as the case might be? The memory is'nt what it was! Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
