Looks like a 1939 or 40 Chevy Mike

Thanks thougth it looked like a Chevy . But LHD narrow tyres and open cab are unusual for late war.
Ex French Contract ?
Early war Canadian army truck ?

Technically not a real CMP but then again
a Tamiya 1/35 Quad used as a part of a blimp for Blade runner http://i.imgur.com/UphVLVL.jpg

The movie is showing it's age (24 years old) but it really has become a cult film. It stars a young Mel Gibson and has it's moments of extreme violence (R rated here).

Watched Mad Max the other night for the first time and spotted the CMP. So I did a SEARCH before posting and found this thread.
