      @simonrhodes84 it's a mk 1/2 c May 1962 would have had a Bren updated to a GPMG around 1970.

    Ferrit Scout Car. Used by British & Canadians. Canadian used them into the late 1970s. I was taught how to drive them in the mid 1970s. Your reused box ambulance was used by the Canadian reserve into the early 1970s. Interesting finds. Thanks for sharing.

    The little scout car is a Daimler Ferret mk 1/2,powered by a Rolls Royce B60 6 cylinder petrol engine with a 5 speed preselect gear box that you can use in both forward and reverse just by moving a lever. Other interesting thing is the steering wheel is inverted,mounted below the front armour facing down. I used to own a mk2/3 with a rotating turret,went like a rocket propelled go cart! Hope that helps. Oh and the American Scout cars are Whites with a Herculse petrol engine,

    Very cool and enjoyable video. If a person had the time and resources, that Rescue vehicle or Ambulance would be a great outback camper conversion.

    The good old Ferret Armoured Car. This vehicle was my bread and butter while serving in BAOR (British Army of the Rhine) as Troop Commanders driver. Petrol engine and up to 50mph on the road. .30 MG in the turret.

    They are all Dodge. The 1st one is a carry all, the 3rd is a M43 ambulance version of the M37. The 2nd is 6x6 is a WC62 1.5 ton. I have a cab with complete front clip and hood for it. The pickup is the 1/4 ton. Correct on the Scout Car m3a1. The motor is a Hercules 320cui. The armored rig I think is called a Ferret. Should be a gas engine. The yellow 6x6 is a CCKW.

    • @JoshBuildsThings

      The 6x6 isnt a CCKW, it is a GMC M135 or M211, post ww2

    The armoured car at 6.50 is a Ferret scout car from the 50's. There are some armoured glass windows and an episcope in the rear of the 'rescue' ambulance veh, these may be for the Ferret. It looks like a Mk2 with the pintle mount for a .30. If you pull the registration mark from it you can apply for a print out of its service life. If the registration mark is illegible it should be on a plate inside, it will read as two numbers, two letters, two numbers.

    @7 mins: It's a Ferret scout car. British or some other Commonwealth country. We used them in Canada right up into the 70s. Not a tank, though.

    Too bad the military contracts included clauses that banned the reimport of wartime deployed vehicles due to the not wanting to hinder the auto manufacturers rebound from the drying up of military contracts by glutting the market with surplus military vehicles that seemingly didn’t wear out and if so were inexpensively repaired via surplus parts.
