C60L with composite GS body
Attached goes a picture of a C60L, ex-Danish Army, with composite (wood-steel) GS cargo body. This truck frequently attends Beltring and other shows, and is the only survivor I can remember seeing with a composite GS body. But seeing wartime pics, the cut-out above the wheels does not seem to be standard.
Your thoughts on this are invited, please. Thanks, Hanno

For comparison, here's the same body - but without cut-outs - which Dirk Leegwater has for sale.

Another C60L with composite GS cargo body, albeit built up as a "senior officers or headquarter caravan", surviving in Denmark.

Just a thought but maybe someone has cut it out to make it easier to change the rear wheels if they puncture. With the plate intact the wheel has to be tilted at an angle to fit under.

senior officers or headquarter caravan"
Hanno,
That senior officers headquarters caravan looks to have a round roof hatch, which I think is a much later modification, produced circa 1943 - after all the 13 Cab vehicles that had either no roof hatch or a square one. So is this vehicle a re-creation - or possible a vehicle from NW Europe campaign painted in an early desert war scheme? This vehicle also has arab serials on the doors which I thought were dropped from use in 1941.
