Kieth, your first pic is a Chev 15 cwt but the box is unique. It's a lot like the 2A1 but it has square wheel well openings. The only pix I've seen of British made boxes use 3 1/2" boards for the sides and this one uses 5 1/2" by the look of it. It doesn't have fold down sides and the POW can holders are mounted on their side instead of laying flat. The top of the endgate is flat too.

The scribbling on the back is hard to read, all I could make out is Egypt and 1942. HTH, Hanno

I have no idea what make/model this truck is but there is no doubt who owned it when photographed.

I'm not positive but could be a M-H.. See the Ford design front axle housing for the front wheel drive.. But not positive. And the front wheels and dual rear wheels.. All typical of M-H..

Its a GMC ACK353 ex French Contract.
The reason for the Ford like front Diff is that they are Timken (split) diffs and they used Budd five stud wheels All the best Kevin |

I agree with Kevin.....An ACK353 during it's ownership by the third (?) party.....French, German, Canadian.
Interesting picture Clive. Do you know where and when it was taken? ![]() source: http://yemenclassiccars.tripod.com (but likely to be borrowed from Bart VanderVeen's military vehicles directory)
