I know we gave a bunch of them to the commies, but did we give some to our Aussie friends as well?

Those are some groovy pieces of green iron history! Of course being that they're gassers, I'd hate to have to pay to feed one of those thirsty beasts! lol

The truck that appears at the 2:08-2:19 mark looks as though it might have been converted to diesel. It has a M serries 5 ton type air cleaner on the fender.

My question is are these trucks physically bigger than the GMC CCKW?

If I remember correctly, the Australians purchased/traded for a large quantity of these trucks after the War.

REO also made copies of the Studebakers during the War.
