I'd like to know, brand, model and engine of this massive truck.

Hiawatha

GMC chassis bodied in Europe?

targhediferro

Not GMC, and not bodied in Europe.

Continuing with an earlier quiz, is this possibly a conversion from a WWII vehicle, maybe American??

My source doesn't say if this truck derives from a WWII conversion, but it could be possible. It's American.

Eh, eh...I'm happy you got the twin-set. Correct replay.

Bill Murray

I just got lucky and found both in the same place while looking for something else.
I would bet we both had the same source.

Some days are like that, I guess.  Hours of research and nothing, then one single click on the web and all kinds of answers pop up.

Nothing to be proud of but what the heck.
