Found this at an Idaho scrap yard. Having worked prehospital for 20+ years found it interesting. No Idea of era or country of origin. Hope someone here has some idea. By general shape I'm thinking British, French, Belgian but I have no good clue or even a clue of where to turn for a resource.

The head liner is typical German.
