I forget where I got them from for the moment

Here you go: MVT South Cumbria & North Lancs:

"The Long nosed Chevrolet 3 ton was a two wheel drive vehicle that found life difficult in India and Burma. The wet, muddy terrain bogged down the vehicles, so they were eventually replaced with the four wheel drive snub nosed Chevys, the one below being fitted as a recovery wagon. Note that the first of these pictures shows a roll of barbed wire being carried on the front of the truck. Would you damage the paintwork of your neatly restored vehicle for the sake of this reality? Note also the third picture shows the row of three petrol cans just to the right of the gentleman on the running board. These were fairly small in comparison with Jerry cans which were larger and did not leak unlike the British petrol can."
