These trucks were also made post WW2 so it can be confusing identifying them .
That example does not have a GMH Aust. made cab , but GMH did assemble US made cabs during WW2 , imported as lend lease . GMH manufactured those particular style Chevy cabs from 1939 til 47 . The military light switch on that truck looks to be a later add on accessory , it is new switch to my eyes . The plate above the light switch has GAS AUX MAIN on it, implying it is a Nth American built truck . We use petrol not gas , my car runs on gas LPG ! Mike

As has been stated, This is an american truck built under a U.S. army contract. Your average GMC CCKW 353 etc (a family which boasts about 3/4 of a million trucks built during wwII) has "GAS" written inside its petrol guage.
