or another US style 4X2 1/2 ton civilian based vehicle. An early war one perhaps supplied to the British.

To me the firewall shape and set up reminds me of either Dodge or Ford. Could it be an early (1939-1942) panel van type? Did some of these have independent front suspension rather then a straight axle with leaf springs? I know most of the light Chrysler type vehicles did have the independent suspension by this stage.
