Default White 10-ton 6x4, Model 1064 Cargo Carrier

I'm looking for any information on the White 10-ton 6x4, Model 1064 cargo carrier, aside from the information contained in Fred Crismon's U.S. Military Wheeled Vehicles or the old Data Book of Wheeled Vehicles: Army Transport 1939-1945, which I already have.

I'd like to be able to pin down whether it saw Canadian service in NWE along with material from a manual if one is floating around somewhere.

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Thanks Phil. That's the one.

I still know one of these trucks tucked away in a building in the Antwerp docks , they had a few of them , and the surviving one was the donor vehicle , it is all there exept some bits from the engine are missing.

Chris, its mostly very good quality photographs with some sectional drawings and line drawings of air and wiring layouts. The picture Phil posted is from this manual.
What in particular do you need?

As it used the same basic cab as the White 666, which has been recently released in kit form, I'm interested in building a model of it. Chassis details, engine, drive train, and suspension images would be very helpful.

Would you be agreeable to me contacting you off-board?

Cheers,

Chris

Chris,

By all means you can contact anyone off-board, but MLU would value it if you could share the information you gathered here for future reference.

Thanks in advance!

Chris,

Did you manage to get your model done? I was also looking into this conversion based on the HobbyBoss 1/35 kit....that's how I found this thread

This British Pathe movie shows a couple of them in action (even though these don't have the box on the cab roof):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IvSVHFGxw4

Also interesting to see the trailers they are pulling; I remember one of these for sale in France years ago.

Maurice, do you know if it's still there? Would be awesome to see one of these trucks preserved.

Alex
