I was thinking of a DAF's TRADO bogie (walking beam construction like on Scammell's) because of the wide track and single rear tyres. But a TRADO bogie is a bit out of place in The Philippines....

Is that a 'woodie' Ford wagon on the left? Perhaps Australian C11ADF ex-Mid-East or did the US forces have similar wagons?
Yes, it looks like a Ford Station Wagon, but it being a C11ADF is unlikely as the US military used Ford Station Wagons as well.
