It looks like you have found a Danish conversion made under
the name "Skovgaard" they where also made as 4 wd
versions as both equal and unequal wheeled like county and
roadless.

this link describe in Danish how it all started in Lemvig in Denmark in 1947. The loaders where later after the major built on ford 5000.
