I was looking at the latest copy of 'Classic and Vintage Commercials'
[April 2000] and there is an article in it about WW2 vintage vehicles
still on the road in Burma/Myanmar. Apparently not many trucks have been
imported since independence in 1948 and there are still a lot of
ex-military stuff on the road.

Vehicles shown include

        Dodge T110L D60L
        Chevrolet CC60L/X3
        Ford/Chevrolets with No 13 cab
        Fordson 7V Fire engines [still in use!]

Goodness knows what else there is that the author of the article
missed...
