Default Mm, two of my favourite vehicles

A WC Dodge and a Peugeot 404.

Not terribly keen on the way they have been assembled in that pic though.

Default Addition of the last post of aj lec

Hello ANDREW

I have founded the complementary pic to the pic you have posted.
The two pics (your and my) have been shoted in the SOUTH of FRANCE in the 60' in a little island in mediterrannee.
Nevertheless the second pic I post seems to be a mystery not resolved by french military collectors. The truck (very well loaded) seems to be a DODGE WC with a local body but the front end is very fun. The bonnet seems to be the bonnet of a GMC AFKWX or some thing like this and the truck seems to be a cab over engine. I think that the hunt of the solution is open

Regards Serge

I almost looks like a Ford GTB regarding proportions, but that's where the similarities end. I agree that it is a Dodge WC based truck. Did someone try yo turn it into a Cab over Engine so he could fit more topless girls inthe back?

Indeed the nose end shows some similarities with the GMC AFKWX or one of the trucks in the Federal, White, Autocar range, but it could also be the firewall of a Dodge WC without the engine covers.
