But the diff does look to be Ford style...
I thought the brush bar looked Ford, too...
Vent holes Chev...
Perhaps a field-assembled/repaired "Bitza Blitz"?

No oil under it... Must be Ford...

Radiator Chevy , bumper Chevy, Air intake Chevy . I would say Chevy , because to adapt a Ford chassis to put a Chev, top on would be too much trouble in a field or REME workshop .

Chev C60 Cab 12. I don't see anything Ford about it. I might not be the best picture, but I see a genuine GM axle.
