Good solid American trucks popular with collectors world-wide these days. Have never seen an ambulance version, though!

Les Français semblent préférer les camions américains parce qu'ils sont commande à gauche.

Thanks for the link, Karmen, always nice to keep up with others elsewhere!

Nice chap with emminent good sense, obviously! :D

The DUKW on his site looks delightful, if a bit expensive. I've been on those in Lake Ontario when most of you were in short pants. Great fun... :)

Marko -- "Old Fart" indeed... there's the pot talking to the kettle! :p

GMC-CCKW
 
The French forces used these as a mainstay of their vehicle fleet well up to the early 1980's. Every conceiveable version plus some of their own unique ones. The command 352 at the bottom of the page being a purely French post WW2 one.

Thanks for the link.

Cheers
Cliff :)
