The photo has just corrected my listing! The 1944 B Census list shows that L 4916925 to 4917312 were to V.5121 as 'Lorry 3 ton 4 x4 G/S', with no reference to 6-pdr Portees. However the photo is very similar to an IWM one of a Chevrolet C60L Portee rebuild as a G/S. and the photo location looks the same!

I have had to decide whether Vauxhall Motors Limited or General Motors Limited at Bamber Bridge, Preston, did the work to a similar specification. However the location keeps reminding me of Hendon Aerodrome, which was of course an RAF base during the war and a short distance away from Vauxhall's section of the former GM Limited Hendon Plant which undertook considerable refurb work for the Ministry of Supply.
