CCKW 353 - HSU491 - Cargo

No: 363

Registration No: HSU491
Date First Registered In The UK: 1 Jul 1988
Type: CCKW 353 Open Cab
Type: Cargo
Stencil: USA 4186576
Fitting: Pioneer Rack
Year: Dec 1943
Location:  Crawley, West Sussex.
Date: Aug 2013
Comment:  Seen advertised for sales on E-May with the following narrative:
"I've owned this Jimmy for over 26 years and now the time has come to let her go so someone else can have fun with it!
It is a 1943 GMC 353 CCKW, long wheel base with open cab. All fully operational, all canvas/tilts/sidescreens, original composite body construction (rare), all new UNIROYAL bar grip tyres, kitchen and bedroom (double bed and bunkbed) conversion with storage units in the cargo bed, ramps and winch to accommodate driving a Willys Jeep into the cargo bed (ideal for you Jeepsters!) and ready to drive away.
Originally served in Europe before being given to the Dutch Army on the Lend/Lease program. When I purchased it I stripped and fully restored before taking it for its first I.M.P.S show at Paddock Wood in the Summer of 1988. Subsequently, this old truck is an award winner as it was awarded the Tired Iron Truck Service (T.I.T.S) for Best USA Military Vehicle at the War & Peace Show. It's claim to fame is that it appeared in Stanley Kubricks much acclaimed Vietnam war British location filmed epic Full Metal Jacket."
