Tank Chats #10 Crossley Chevrolet Armoured Car

Armoured cars had proved so successful in India during the First World War, that shortly after its end the Indian Government ordered 16 Rolls-Royce cars. However, these proved so expensive that subsequent orders were placed with Crossley Motors in Manchester who made a tough but cheap 50hp IAG1 chassis. Substantial numbers of these cars were supplied between 1923 and 1925. The car shown in this film was presented to The Tank Museum by the Government of Pakistan in 1951.
