Default Re: Military Ford GTB....

Most were used by the Navy during the 2nd WW. Army got some, but very few. Some of the engine parts are unique to it. A lot had a bomb carrying trolley and hoist setup on them and no cargo box as this pic shows. There are still a few out our way as we had Quonset Point in R.I. and the sub base at Groton, Ct. The fruit growers in Calif used a lot as they were the right size for the orchards and cheap after the war.
