Jacek,
Over on HMVF I saw you posted a picture of the number found on the bumper. I guess "363 W7" is a civilian registration number?
I was asking about any military markings because I wonder if this C15 was one supplied to France after WW2, or if it was
one of many captured in 1940 by the German Army, used by them during the occupation of France, after which it was put to civilian use? If only trucks like this could tell their whole story!
