Default C30

David a brief histry of the C30

order for contract 2003 was made June 1940 to suply 1500 chev 30 cwt trucks to England
production started in September 1940 by GM
the order arrived in England to be reasembled late 1940
this truck was sent to North Africa with the British army
latter transfered to the Australian army
when the Australians returned to Australia they brought their trucks back with them
this C30 still has the numbers 30565 painted on the mud guards which I believe were stenceled on when the truck left for Australia

David thanks again
