Landships II

It is new photo?
No, it is very old, anno 1913

It's from broshure of IV International automobile exhibition St. Petersburg.
Russo-Baltique D 24/40 HP fire engine, only one built for fire brigade of Riga. 1914 it was rebuilt as ambulance-car and go to North front in service of Russian Imperial army. 

I have all pictures of all cars and trucks of Russo-Baltic waggon-work in big format, also armoured cars BAKs. Russo-Baltique built 1909-1915  in Riga and 1915-1918 632 cars and trucks.

In museum of Riga is the same car, now "half-replica", rebuilt in 80-years, very primitiv with not all autentic parts. Chassis, radiator and gear-box original. Radiator-figur (Eagle) is no correct! Engine is old - unknown, back axle from old Berliet. Body is replica.

From all Russo-Balt cars now only one is foul original - Type K 12/20 open passenger car (torpedo) in Polytechnic-museum in Moscow.

 

So must be autentic RB-Eagle

In PDF-file is my article : Russo-Balt T 40/65 truck and armoured and unarmoured gun-carriers. Sorry, wtoten in Russian. Pictures are good
