Isn't it a GMC? |

Yes, probably GMC CCKW-353 (or possibly -352? wheelbase looks short). [edit] Could be a Chevrolet G-7107; comments? |

This is the Chevrolet 1.5 ton rather than the GMC, which is often confusing. The distinguishing characteristic is the engine side panel vents. This appears to have the partial vent toward the rear of the panel compared to the GMC full panel of vents. The wheelbase is shorter than the 353 and the 352 had the fuel tank above the frame rail between the cab and bed. Suspect it is the same w/winch truck as seen elsewhere in the film. I believe the site lists the "1.5 ton Chevy" military cargo model as G7117. -- Last edit: 2013-08-22 00:39:21 |
