Looks to me as a 1945 APT Chevrolet , so I think they were out of the desert by that time .

Default Other pictures of it have been on MLU

Hi Anthony

The truck in your picture has been on MLU before with different pictures but the same truck. Now the question is under what tread. The MLU picture file name was 28584 if some one can figure out how to search for it that way.

Cheers Phil

I searched for C60L Caravan and came up with the following threads:
- CMPs for sale in Denmark
- C60L with composite GS body: wheel cut-outs?

I recall seeing it at Beltring as well, but apparently it came from Denmark originally.

HTH,
Hanno

Also some pictures under "Beltring 2009".

I seem to recall this truck came up for sale recently?

Yes, we call it the Lemon Palace. It is owned by a chap called Stuart and comes to Beltring. He goes to amazing lengths to set up unique dioramas for it.

See www.aeroscale.co.uk for a "walk-around" of this vehicle.

Default C60l

So the pictures show clearly that it is not a APT truck , so possibly end 44 beginning 45 then . APT were mostly manufactured in Aug 45
