Yes, Gavin- Can you check these out for us in your
spare time? Is the DRMO near Bangkok? How about some
photos? :-)

I believe that these are just about the rarest of the postwar G-742 series
trucks. I am not at home now, so I can't look up NSN, or verify my
recollection, but I THINK that these are the Reo's with vacuum assisted
brakes (rather than air assist), and a 12 volt non-sealed electrical system.
These were built for export/military assistance. DO NOT bid on these based
on my recollection, verify it first.
Hope this helps.
