A: YR = 1941 Model 134 1/2 inch wheelbase 1.5 ton
MS = 1942 Model 160 inch wheelbase 1.5 ton

the second pic 1941-42 model is the type of truck I am talking about that was pictured in 1945 as possibly one of the survivors of the 96 deliverd in February 1942?
A: That is why I posted it...I apologise as I had forgotten that I had them.

So KNIL had by March 1942 several types of pre-May 1940 imported Chevrolet and GMC from Europe (Antwerp, DAF and Rotterdam?);

- several models of Priok assembled Chevrolet trucks (late thirties and 1940); AT LEAST 1937-1940

- normal but stalled 1941 Priok assembly; AGREED

- 750 MS 4x2 trucks that were assembled at Wonosari; POSSIBLY IF 1942 MODELS OTHERWISE WERE 1941 or 1942 CANADIAN 1541 [CHASSIS WITH FLAT FACE COWL]/1542 [CHASSIS WITH COWL] ...REASON IS THAT THERE WERE NO 1941 RHD US EXPORT MILITARY TRUCKS [all lhd]

- 96 4x4 Chevrolet trucks of 912 assigned (of 2000 ordered) in February 1942; [PROBABLY AS PER PICTURE]

- unknown type and number of Chevrolet 4x2 or possibly 4x4 COE trucks converted to overvalwagens;[AGREED]:
