General Motors Truck

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

I think I can say that I have never seen a cab like that! I suggest from the parking lights that it is a 1941-on model, perhaps 1942 or even 1945-on to 1946. My immediate reaction was that it reminded me of a DIVCO conversion with the Walk-thru style body, but it's not! However there were wartime bodies for use as canteens and the like with extra side windows on a widened body on 1941 chassis-cowl Chevrolets and I wondered if this truck originally had a wartime utility body which was cut back at some time and standard doors etc. fitted. It certainly looks like a chassis-cowl to me with a cab-body added.

Oh! I should add that I suspect it's a civilian style order as it has "GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK" on the hood side, and this tended to be deleted on military orders. Where is the truck now please?
