Hi Jose,

thank You very much for posting these very interesting pics of a PzInź 713. A very rare specimen.

A notice from people smarter than me, Mr. Gebhk via https://www.dws.org.pl/ forum:
"I’m afraid, this is not a PZInż 713. The pictures show a 5-ton truck built under license from Saurer. The original 3CT1D chassis was upgraded in Poland to the COE version under the PZInż 153c name. Only a short series of chassis was built. These were then captured and completed by the Germans. The car body was probably from an original Polish design, but there is no confirmation of this in the archives.
The PZInż 713 3.5-ton truck was a completely different home-grown design."

In the interests of fair play, the above text is by MG75, a recognised expert in the field . I was merely the humble translator.

BTW #143 and #144 are definitely Polski Fiat 508/518 cars. Best guess, ex-anti-tank gun tractors.

And with apologies for reviving a very old body, #120 while definitely a Polski Fiat 508/518 it is unlikely to be a radio carrier - these were all fitted with fixed van bodies of one sort or another. The peculiar wheel arch covers and vertical box on the side suggest this is an AAMG carrier.
