Hi I just get hold of this GMC.
Last owner imported it from Norway.
Going to renovate it.
It seems to be in god condition, engine runs like a dream.
Going to order canvas to this one and my Dodge wc52 (renovate it for over a year now) so I can collect it in UK at the war and peac show in August.

Enjoy.
What are all those other Military looking vehicles/trailers in the background.
Is the hauler a Scania?
Bill
Thanks!
No its a MAN.
In front of the GMC is a old military Scania 110, the orange vehicle is a Volvo Valp 903, the trailers is from UK.. dont know the name... And at the picture of the Willys you can se a ex german ww2 searchlight
Thank you for the information. Your truck is the best of the lot. Should be operation in short order.
I asked about the hauler because there has been some discussion here about what is the best for our vehicles. That is certainly an interesting setup. Also I use to work for Saab-Scania in the states.
Good luck with your new toy.
