That is one seriously underpowered tank [:0];)
(I think they were used as donkey engines for starting the big engine :I)

'Harvey the RV'
 
yep it was, along with RR meteor engine (unsupercharged merlin)

looks like a UAZ. has a 2.5 litre 4-pot volga petrol engine, 4 wheel drive. serious bit of kit, built on a russian jeep chassis. they are actually a wee bit quicker than a commer
