Chrysler C34W?
From Post 10 of this thread: "Australian automotive historian Eric North mentioned that the 42 Chrysler C34W models listed on the 1942 War Units sheet were delivered to the Australian Army in 1944. This suggests the War Units and Export categories of this period are a bit hazy."
Have not been able to find these in AWM126, and 1944 seems very, very late to be delivering 2 wheel drive vehicles of any type to the Aust Army. By this time, the Army was disposing of 2-wheel drive 'orphans' of all makes - vehicles of which there were few in number and were a maintenance and storage liability. Nor have I been able to find any Chrysler vehicles in the USASOS/USAFIA 'returned for disposal' lists, RAN or RAAF lists (but the US and RAN lists are very incomplete).
