Default S/M 2029

Mike, do you have any more information in the book about S/M 5007 please? The '5XXX' series was I thought not used for soft-skins...'2XXX' and '6XXX', with '1XXX' for armoured. It could have been a parts order???

The British trucks were part of S/M 2029 which also included the Chevrolet C8s.

Z 4613111 to 4613593 ...British deliveries but there were Mid-East deliveries which were then allocated Mid-East area census numbers. I suspect that the NZEF trucks were Mid-East S/M 2029 deliveries that were then issued to forces in Egypt for the Libyan campaign. Were there any AIF D8As?

I have a scanner and I think W&T # 4 so if you get stuck, I'll get stuck in for you.
