Ett jaette bra jobb:

If you have followed some of my participation on these threads of late, you will have found a fellow computer Klutz.

As Hanno can verify, I have been fighting the computer maze for many, many months and have only of late been able to post photos in one way or the other. I congratulate you for learning as I have how to do at least the basics.

To your photos, considering the vast global interest in vehicles used by the Netherlands in the NEI, I am quite sure you have brought to us photos that otherwise would never have been available to "the general public".

For the moment, I will tend to agree that the 6X4 vehicles you posted are GMC T4 models. The only reason I am not totally sure is the photos show a different cab and body (always a problem) compared to the USA versions. On the other hand, the wheels have the distinctive GMC "look" as regards the holes in the wheels and as well the petrol tank looks the same as on several photos I have of this vehicle from Bart Vanderveens book and as well Fred Crismons book on US vehicles.

On another note, Pat and I are leaving tomorrow for a 2400 mile (4000km) trip to our annual convention with the HobbyTown USA corporate group. Always a nice excuse to exercise my 2002 Lincoln Blackwood Pickup

Sad to say, the convention is in Lincoln Nebraska which is still stuck in the 20th Century. So, no internet connection for me for a week. They still use dial up telephones and still have long distance operators. As well, unless it has changed since last year, they still have only black and white TV and no cell phone service.

So, I will be out of touch for the next 10 days or so but please keep learning how to post/scan photos as you are on to some really good stuff.

MVH

Bill
