                        This shouldn't be too hard, you can probably already guess the country it's from.



                        However, I do think that the designers of this vehicle had some issues with certain parts of the male anatomy. Wink [;)]

                        Ah....would that be the Dutch M39 Panserwagen, the production model of the Van Dorne Type 3 armored car?

                        Peridexion, I have better reference pics of Grosstacktor 1 and Grosstracktor 2 but don't have my camera at the moment. I hope to pick it up late next week so I'll send you the pics if you e-mail me your address.

                        As to the quiz, the family and I are off to see my Wife's sick Granfather and I will be offline for a week. So here is a pic, and I'll send t3488g the answer, seeing as he started this thread. I'll leave it to him to choose a new pic if no-one gets this one.



                        One obscure tip - only one of these saw action against the Germans in WW2. Good luck.

                        Close enough! Actually Grosstraktor III. Very good Petbat, you're are next winner! My books say it has a 75mm, but they are kind of sketchy on this vehicle, maybe it is a 105. Sorry about the junk photo, it's the only one I've seen of this beast.

                        Dodgy photo alright, but it looks like one of the German Grosstractor designs from the late 1920's. Probably Grosstractor 1with one 105mm howitzer in the lower turret and 3 mg's in the rear/upper turret.

                        Skink is a verb, isn't it? I believe the proper conjugation is; Skink, skank, skunk, if I'm not mistaken. You guy's give up on this one yet? It's a toughy! Only two of them made.

                        This isn't the tank I wanted to post, I can't find the photo. But this one should give you folks enough trouble, mainly from the poor image quality. Sorry, but this is the only photo of this I could find.
