I never knew there was a van version of the BMC 1100! The estate cars are extremely rare, but I've never seen a van!

I think they were sold in Denmark & a few other export markets.

A mining truck has drove off the road in the far north of Norway in 1938.

This is the mine to which the truck in the picture above belongs.

A bus went off the road in Norway in 1962 during the spring thaw.

Presumably an iron ore mine. Not quite big enough to be a drag line excavator, but seen the same in the UK.

That is right. This is Bjørnvatn mines close to the border with Russia.

Frankly terrifying looking Land Rover based recoilless gun. Not absolutely sure but I think this an Australian Army one (though I'm happy to be corrected).

I believe that's a Curtis C-46 being loaded or unloaded.  It looks to be a precarious operation with the angle of a tail dragger and a small cargo door to contend with. Having the  car balanced on a pallet is obviously the logical* way to stuff a car into a delicate fuselage.
