Looking for photos taken by the Itailians of Col. Claytons captured Ford pilot car, Te Rangi

[partsgone]

I have three photos of Col. Claytons Ford pilot car taken by the Itialians after it's capture. If anyone has such photos i would love for you to share them with me. I'm hoping there were more then three taken and i suspect there was, just don't know where to look for them. thanks

Welcome to the fourm!

It took me a few minutes to understand your question. I assume you are asking about the Ford 01 used by Clayton in the LRDG that he had named Te Rangi.

There is a book by Mortimer titled Vehicles of the Long Range Desert Group 1940-1945. It might have some pictures of the vehicle after its capture.

Hopefully others might know of some sources for pictures.

Do you have a copy of INCIDENT AT JEBEL SHERIF: IN SEARCH OF THE FIRST CLASH OF THE SPECIAL FORCES 1941/2009 by Kuno Gross? That appears to be a pretty complete account of the fight in which Clayton was captured. Many pictures.

You can see part of the book here on Google books: https://books.google.com/books/about/Incident_at_Jebel_Sherif.html?id=ObjbXDHJggsC

Pista! Jeff
