It was intended to be sold to a certain national army.

But it remained in the prototype stadium.

It is a RHD car obviously, but it was built in a continental european country...

:scratch: Well, which Continental European country would make a RHD vehicle? 

Belgium?

Not Belgium.

Maybe they chose RHD for its military purpose - I do not know.

I will have to go with a bit of hope on this one.

It is from Czechoslovakia, the Model designation is Z-T2 and it was a prototype radio car for the army built in 1938 in one example.  I found one other photo, not yours, in a very reliable reference source and it indicates that it was built by Tatra although it does not actually say so.  My concern is that it had a 4 cyl 2 stroke air cooled motor that was not typical for Tatra if I remember correctly.

Regarding the RHD, Czechoslovakia drove on the left until after they capitulated.


Edit:  A little more looking and I now believe it was made by Zbrojovka Brno.  All their vehicles started with Z-xxx
and they used air cooled two stroke 4 cyl motors.
