The vehicle manufacturer and model should be recognised quickly. But who created the body for this special application?

Interesting. Do you know if it was built during the French colonial Morocco, or independant Morocco?

I was making some research about old Citroën trucks and i believe it's actually a Type 23 and not 55:
the Type 55 has wider front wings compared to T23, 2 blinkers on each wing (T23 has 1), and ten-spoked wheels (T23 is 6)
