Default 2 Pounder Portee

Though aged, I am new to softskin study. I have long been interested in early Western desert portees, with an eye to modelling in 1:35. Particularly, these vehicles:



An IWM photo, E-2567.

The second in line has serial on the hood 395514 with the prefix "L" or faintly possible "C". I estimate the wheel base of the third in line at approximately 160 inches, working from an estimated 50 inch length beyond the shied of the 2 pounder barrel. Are these trucks possibly Canadian Chevrolet WBs?

Any advice on tracing the serial, the actual make and model and /or anything known about the unit, location, date, camo, license plate style, anything at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Mike Powell
