Very rare WW2 Chevrolet 17pr gun tractor
I believe that only 8 of these were built in 1944, being converted from the 2pr Portee that was by then obsolete. 85% restored. £8500. Painted in a colour of your choice.

1943 -46 Chevrolet C 15 A, Army truck, 4x4 "BARN FIND" runs and drives, taxed
Lots of fun, Diesel,

1943 - 46 Chevrolet Army truck, Built originally for the British Army, it is R/H/D, as you can see its in original condition and could either be used as it is or re-painted etc to smarten it up, it was fitted with a Perkins diesel engine approx. 50 years ago, the engine is unbelievable, it starts instantly every time, the cab really needs some repairs, new metal letting in etc, but it has been in use this year as it is, it is mot and tax exempt.
I am the first to admit that I know nothing about these vehicles, im not even sure of the model (maybe someone could tell me) it looks loads of fun though and would be great for taking to rallies/re-enactments etc etc (if you are quick there is a big one at Pickering in Yorkshire this weekend)
Runs and drives, we can deliver at extra cost, comes with v5, registration number is DJU 354 and the current tax disc is here.
The v5 states a registration date of 24/06/1946 but the previous owner told me it was manufactured in 1943.
The winning bidder must pay a £250 deposit immediately after the auction ends, the balance must then be received within 5 days
More pictures to be added
On 09-Oct-13 at 21:53:55 BST, seller added the following information:
Forgot to mention, the truck has a huge winch mounted to the chassis near the rear axle (see new pics) It also still has the machine gun turret visible on the roof, the interior pic shows the engine cover missing but we do have that.

After another round on Ebay it's back for sale on MilWeb, now properly listed as a Cab 12. Looks rather smart.

HUW on MilWeb - pricey....

1943 Chevrolet C8A Wireless Truck
Age has caught up with me and the time has come to offer my very original Chevrolet Wireless truck for sale. It has done less than 10,000 miles from new. As far as I can tell it was never issued and was released from the MoD in 1947 with 500 miles on the clock. It was privately owned before being purchased by a military vehicle museum, from where I bought it 21 years ago.

The vehicle is right-hand drive with a beautiful wooden steering wheel. It comes with its four original, 1942-dated, part-worn, run-flat tyres plus one good spare. The original tyres were replaced with bar-tread tyres which are in excellent condition. The truck is equipped with a No.19 radio set, original operator’s head-set, antennae, a set of snow chains (unused), jack, starting handle, radiator muff, stainless steel exhaust, shovel, original 1942-dated detailed maintenance manual and a modern towing bar.

£42,500
