A WWII Jeep and a ?

• CATEGORIES: Features, International This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Buz forwarded these photos showing a WWII jeep at play. He was wondering what the silver vehicle was (see third photo). Is that some kind of jeep from India or Pakistan? My brief searches yielded no clues.

Here are a couple links Matt forwarded related to the pics:
