Tony you could always build the old Chev into this model as then it would be of some use recovering other goodies for your collection

I did not pick out from the photo that it was a lend lease cab. You have good eyes Cliff. I am still a bit dubious about the photo because I originally was looking at a lend lease 1942 Chevy and have photos of it sent to me before I bought my 1940. Plus there was another Chevy which was lend lease at the same time and place where I got my truck from which I had to choose from. I still reckon that the nose - (cowl?) seems to look shorter in these trucks than the 3 ton stores truck. Working at a university which has a photo lab I had a mate do a poster sized collage of photos I copied from some where and had my old truck in the centre as a bit of inspiration of what my truck will look like one day. Of the ten other trucks -all Chevys 1940-42 that 3 ton stores truck stands out as being different in the engine bay ... cowl... nose section. However it could be just a different angle or a distoration in the image between the 1940s and now. Kind Regards Lionel |
