Default 2 pounder portee

Thans for the responses.

I have some further questions:

1)David_Hayward stated:

"219 Chevrolet and Morris-Commercial C.8/MG or later C.8/AT portees were sold to the NZ government and shipped to NZ probably being remnants of those issued to the NZ Expeditionary Force"

The Morris Commercial C8/MG was used by NZ forces in North Africa?

2) Keith Webb stated:

"was the cab 12 C60L type, mostly Chevrolets. The 101" wheelbase version lacked the chassis winch, of which several survive in New Zealan"

Where the C30 S or C60 S also used as 2 pdr portee?


3)Tony Smith has added ha interesting pic of the truck object
of my first question. The truck is the same showed in the book of
Vanderveen identified as Chevrolet CMP CGT
I haven't see a similar truck in photos captured in North Africa

Where only it used in NZ?

Regards
Attilio
