OK, there were no reactions. The question was either too difficult or too easy.
The CMPish truck in the first picture must look like swearing in the church for you. I guess it was a local field adaptation done by recycling parts of various trucks. The hood/bonnet is CMP, the tray in the back looks like it was taken from a US GMC truck. And the chassis is strange too. One of the next pictures gives an impression of the wheels. I would say the wheels and possibly the chassis came from a Bedford?
The pick-up is a Chevrolet 1949 I think, civilian. Just look at those white tyres...Nevertheless a nice truck.
The Ford looks like a 4x2 1942/43 Ford 6, the same vehicle that was sent lend-lease to the Sovyets. Not Ford/M-H, not Australian, but US sourced.
There is a fourth vehicle around in the pics. I am guessing it is a Dodge Powerwagon, a vehicle well used by the Dutch in the period. But it is hard to say.
Who knows more pictures of this unit show up. I'll let you know.
