There is a film of Almasy with Steyr trucks were 2 wheel drive pick ups, on a safari ,whether they were special order from Steyr [Model 20 or 40 ?] ,was on TV here years ago on SBS ,''Swimmers in the Desert '',might be on you tube

Couldn't find it, only this:

I don't get the lingo, but the trucks at 7:00 and at 10:02 look a great deal like Ford Model A of the 1930-31 type.

The 'shoveling stuff under the wheels to get out of a spot' footage at 7:00 could just as well be me in Northern Arizona (Ma Nature's sandbox) with a Willys CJ2A a decade and such ago.

Here's some info about Swimmers in the Desert, but no video:
