Default Swedish Armoured Trucks

I found the Swedish armoured Chevrolets very interesting indeed! I have also found evidnce that Lilpop Rau u Loewenstein of Warsaw, Poland, sold some Chevrolet truck chassis to the Polish Army, and they were bodied as troop carriers and also with armoured bodies. They were used of course in the early days of the war. There is evidence that GM South African - supplied chassis were armour bodied and used in East Africa. Then there are the Spanish Civil War trucks!

I wonder whether the Netherlands Army used armoured Chevrolet or GMC chassis from 1935? That year saw the first series deliveries of military trucks through General Motors Continental SA, Antwerp and the Rotterdam sales office, sourced from the USA.
