My pleasure
I know a guy in the Netherlands who owns an unrestored one in quite remarkable condition. Sadly he scrapped the snow plough in his foolish young days, so there's no option now really other than restore it as a cargo truck.

The GMC tractors are 1940 units but I have no thoughts about them other than they must be lhd civilian, NC.
The French ordered a sizeable quantity of GMC trucks from the US, many of which were diverted to the UK when France succumbed to the German Blitzkrieg. I've only seen pictures of GS trucks (some of which also fell in the hands of the German Army), but possibly they had some tractor units on order as well.
