Default that Dodge would be nice to get hold of
The truck itself is just a parts source, but the look of it, but you'd get a set of railway wheels you could drop on any 3/4 ton WC and be ready to rail... the special offset wheels to get the railway gauge would be worth buying the truck for, but they wouldn't fit any of my trucks as I don't have any 3/4 tons left.

Default Sunken carriers
The description on the French page says they were dumped into the sea south of Sinai during the Israeli retreat during the Yom Kippur war in '75

I wonder how many carriers Israel had and what their original provenance was.
