    It appears to be the tracked trailer that was used with the Japanese Type 94 tankette to transport ammunition etc. Type 94s were used in the Japanese conquest and subsequent occupation of Java.

    The only photo in that lot shows a disinfectant tank trailer - which still exists in a museum today

    Look up Vickers & Carden Loyd Utility Tractors, Dave.
    Certainly some went out to the Dutch East Indies, and their chassis appear to have been extensively modified to all sorts of odd jobs.
    Running gear looks right but not dug into assorted patterns.

    Yeah, settling on a Vickers Utility B.
    Some 20 apparently made it to the KNIL :
