Dodge T203B in Australia
I found a naa file (over 300 pages long) relating to the disposal of Lend Lease vehicles in Australia.
One page mentions a single Dodge T203B 4x4 truck that was acquired in the Middle East. https://www.o5m6.de/redarmy/dodge_t203b.php Was this truck a ex-French contract truck, diverted to Britain, shipped to the M.E. , then acquired by Australian troops and shipped to Australia ? Seems that the Dodge was located at Ryde vehicle park in Sydney waiting disposal. The army were unsure of the value or price , they decided on 550 Pounds . The Dodge was probably sold to the Chrysler Aust. dealer: Harden & Johnstone in Sydney. It may appear in the AWM 126 books somewhere. Another odd one mentioned in the file is a 1 Ton GS with Marmon Herrington kit.
