Does anyone have a photo of a tandem rear weeled 30cwt. I don't know if these vehicles were used overseas or not but were used in Canada as TCVs.

Default Holden?

It's either a 1939 or 1940 Canadian-sourced Chevrolet, officially a 1 1/2-tonner/30 cwt. assembled presumably by GM-Holden's. I am useless at telling the difference between the radiator grille widths, but it looks to me like a 1940.

Default tandem wheels

I am not sure if my question was mis-understood or if we are just getting a picture of a DUAL wheeled vehicle. Tandem wheeled vehicles had what I guess you would describe as a rear set of boggies.

sorry for some reason I mistook the word tandom as meaning dual rear tyres. My mistake as I do know that tandom means a 6X4 or 6 X 6 unit.
