some things i saw at the Patton Museum last week

and I saw this at RMP. I think this is a GMC 1 1/2-Ton, the Army bought these during the 1939-41 period, anyone know where the body came from?corrected

Its the GMC version (rad bars are vertical on the Ford one) fitted with a Wayne of Richmond produced Mobile Repair Shop body.

The WWII 'Ord truck' has been around here 'forever'. It was 'buried' up on the upper storage hill, so most would have over looked it. Before that it was stored in one of 'our' old WWII buildings, that was torn down several years ago, so the truck was relocated to RMP.
