Not British WO
Hanno, the tractor units are not diverted stock that was acquired by the British War Office/Ministry of Supply, but could well be diverted civilian stock. I have records of Norwegian/Danish deliveries being seized as prize cargo and then auctioned in England. These are the only GMC Tractor units I have ever come across in the UK. I cannot find any references to a GMC AC-500 series Tractor...all the references are to Forward Control /COE units including the military AFX-502. I am pondering on whether these were rebuilds of GMC ACK-353 diverted trucks and then demobbed in 1944.
