Ever notice that the USA Registration on the majority Euro Return of Open Cab SWB CCKW's is usually that of 1941-1942 era trucks that were originally hard cabs, and that many of these same Open Cab CCKW SWB's have Airborne Cab features?
Mine is USA-454317, delivered in May 1941 and had been refitted with an open cab. It is now back to 1st Series Hard Cab.
