Without actually knowing anything about the prototype shown...
I assume it would be 6x6, so most likely based on the C60X, sometimes called Chevrolet (like the other C8 to C60 series), sometimes called GMC for the 270 CID engine. There is mention of another prototype C60X powered by an inline 8 Chrysler flathead, no idea if this might have been the FAT or not. The brake booster etc. on the C60X are not like the other C60 models. I think the C60X brakes are similar to those on a pre-war COE or the AFKX? series, but this is not certain.
