Default chevy

These trucks were also made post WW2 so it can be confusing identifying them .

That example does not have a GMH Aust. made cab , but GMH did assemble US made cabs during WW2 , imported as lend lease . GMH manufactured those particular style Chevy cabs from 1939 til 47 .

The military light switch on that truck looks to be a later add on accessory , it is new switch to my eyes .

The plate above the light switch has GAS AUX MAIN on it, implying it is a Nth American built truck . We use petrol not gas , my car runs on gas LPG !
