I need to identify a couple of vehicles from Latrun.
Let's start with this Contractor prime mover. Can we figure out the model?

Another prime mover. This time it's a Mack:

Last one is a Diamond T 980, isn't it?

I think they're the same type, but it seems the first one is missing the ballast box. These (originally) are tractors, not wreckers.

Massimo, I have most all the placards from Latrun posted over here, Latrun Pics

Thanks. During my visit most info plates were missing and a few were misplaced.
There is ongoing work at the Museum, with multiple vehicles sandblasted and painted on the spot. The "Allies Monument" has been dismantled to leave space for a new building and I have the feeling some vehicles has been shuffled around.
