In many WWII era official Army and factory CCKWX and CCKW photos from 1941-42. I have some. It is also mentioned in Army publications from that period. Ther ain't enough hours in a dayfor me to go back thru 50 years of stuff I have to give instant documentation. I probably have Dodge proof too. What one can't do is rely on photis of picture books from the past 20 years, as there a lot of photos of collectors trucks mixed in.The Becker books are the best out there, but there are a couple of restored vehicles depicted, and some new collectors cannot tell the difference. A water bucket , rolled camo cloth,and signal lights are good clues to use in weeding out photos that are not authentic.

Hi RANGER:
