Trilex wheels always look great!
By which manufacturer was this truck made and what was its type designation? Who made the cab? Also describe the engine to get the point.

Yes Bill, it's a Lancia 3RO. Locked for you to answer the other questions.

Viberti is very likely, the name in my source differs in one letter, I'm guessing a misspelling.
But the engine is completely different

The 3RO was released only with this engine. If you are thinking of the Type 89 3180 cc 2-stroke 4-cylinder opposed diesel engine produced under Junkers license, then your source is also wrong. This engine was mounted on the RO NM (nafta militar) and RO civil, previous model of the 3RO

The other Junkers engine was a Type 90 4770 cc three-cylinder opposed-piston diesel two-stroke, 95 hp at 1500 rpm.
But it didn't equip the 3RO, only the RO-RO

Bill, you're absolutely right, it's a Ro-Ro with 3-Cylinder engine, bases on Junkers counter piston technology, called type 90 for Lancia.
I'm a bit beside myself at the moment, we have three building sites in the house at the same time.
Point and conclusion will follow later. To make matters worse, one of my hard drives crashed and I have to scan the original picture again...

Thank you very much for your support. You get a sichel-bee for that. And of course one point for solving the puzzle:
Lancia Ro-Ro with Viberti cabin (my source speaks of a "Liberti cabin"...). Three-cylinder opposed piston engine, type 90, Junkers licence, 95 hp, 4770 cc. Delivered to the African branch in Eritrea of an Italian company.

Diesel honey with engine oil flavour.
For friends of historic racing, there is a special variety with the flavour of castor rizinus oil.
