Hi Tony and Bob

Yes, there were various breakdown trucks made in different countries during WW2 . One I can think of is the Austin 6X4 K6 and another is the GMC you posted . There was a Marmon H 6x6 breakdown vehicle here in Aust. as well . They all had the same idea , e.g. a large single piece of I section steel with a sliding block and tackle chain hoist .

Bob , The GMH War Record book has a 1946 copyright on it , is this still valid ? Or has it expired after 50 years . I can copy it for you for personal research purposes , how about a swap for a set of your Chev instrument stickers ? The book has many pics of the three Sth Aust. GMH plants at Woodville , Beverley and Birkenhead .

I am sure the Sth Aust MV club would like to see the book if they haven't already.

Mike
