Hi Chappers
I guess the rareity comes from it never being completed and put into service
The seller said it still had original tires and paint .
Personally if I were to spend that much cash for a HMV there are a few others I would buy first.

John

HI Chappers
Yes that truck is a Studebaker the fender is a dead giveaway,I believe the model is US6, and why so rare there is no were near as many compared to the GMC , most of the studebakers went to lend lease and most of them went to Russia where a lot of them were destroyed ,what survived were never returned.There were a lot of them in the states after WW11 and where sold off, and used up in logging and other heavy use industries and driven into the ground Australia recieved a good number of them during the war and a few have survived down under.

There's a guy in the U.K with these,He wanted about £7000 each .All are in new condition with only about 3ooo miles on the clocks. A lot cheaper than the one in the US.

Studebakers in Australia
I can confirm that there a some good ones still in Australia, they seem to be about in similar numbers to the GMC.
I was told that they were very little used by the Australian Army, and were released for sale much later than the GMs. I have seen for sale a couple of very low mileage units, all original, asking price $A 15-20,000. ( that is
US $10-15,000 or UK 5-7000 pounds), I know a fellow that bought one, dont know what he paid, I reckon it would have been less than the asking price,
apparently it is totally original with all army markings and even tags ( although I am not sure what the tags are!)

more studebaker photos from Australia
These vehicles belonged to members of the Sydney Military Vehicle club.
I have only recently found out this beach ( Port Stephens) was one of 2
training areas for the American Army in WW2 for amphibious landings.
The other was Bribie Island in Qld. Apparently all the local roads were constructed by them as well.
My CCKW can also be seen in one photo.

Re: Studebaker Pictures
The fellow that had all those Studebakers in his shed in the UK was Allan Chapman of Kettering. He died some years ago and I understand his collection was sold off. I owned one of the trucks here in Australia for many years before selling it to him.
