Default it is greek!

Gentlemen,
Don Bunn's Chevrolet book, page 35, has the answer: in 1939 the Greek Purchasing Commission ordered 150 of these trucks from GM Alexandria, but British Export Guarantee Dept could not agree, possibly just the pictured trucks were built (or the others for the Egyptians?)
Enjoy, Nuyt

I came across a copy of this book for sale, as it happened the entry on the trucks for the Greek Purchasing Commission was included in the photos - read the text for further explanation:
