4x4 1 1/2 ton US military chevrolet in Batavia/jakarta 1945
Above I wrote:
"Here is a serial number on the left hand side of the bonnet (its a lhd vehicle) from one of the pictures (oct-nov 1945) : 330960 S and a bigger 76 on the side..."
While looking to the 4x4 govt contract David (thanks!) posted (chevypage3) I came upon the following entry 30B:
1 1/2 ton cab and cargo
Contract no W398QM9602
Bid 2 3076
type 1941 YR4103
Hmmm, Some numbers are evidently similar. Could the KNIL vehicle have been one of this contract? Was the 76 painted on the side at the plant and then the vehicle was shipped straight to the Indies?
