In Finnish Lapland there is some road which has not been used since beginning of 1970's. There is remains of truck which has been blown by mine. They are about 20 meters off from the road. There is some remains left from where you can assume that left front tyre has ignited the mine because left front frame is torn off.
From truck frame is little remains of paint. First is Dunkelgrau and top is Dunkelgelb. Maybe trucks stepping board is the key to find out which truck it would be?
Also on the edge of the road there is fragments of two different 1940's truck tyres. You can see Continental horse logo and "NOKIA" -text (Finnish manufacturer).
Most possible timing is Lapland war in late 1944.
There is front frame part and stepping board also some smaller fragments.
I think this is blown front fenders/wings and front part under front grill and left fender is completely flown away.
Rim is heavily damaged by mine.
There is Continental-logo and two letters: "KI" from Finnish "NOKIA" text.
