Patterned after the CCKW. The hood side panel and front axle & wheel are NOT from the GMC CCKW. Other vehicles in the film are patterned after US military vehicles and this may be a well? |

Could it be a genuine CCKW that was repaired with different parts? There appear to be CCKWs around in China, unless this one is a fake too: /vehicle_182007-GMC-CCKW.html |

NOT a CCKW......its a postwar Japanese Isuzu TW 340..a postwar produced japanese self defence Force vehicle |

It is a GMC CCKW 353, with some non-original parts. It is from the inventory of Beijing-based August 1st Film Studio: It is not an Isuzu TW 340. No record shows anyone from China ever imported any Japanese vehicle and then converted it to a WWII US military vehicle look-like. Using a similar size Chinese made truck would be much cheaper and easy. -- Last edit: 2015-05-22 10:18:07 |

Are you sure that these trucks are not replicas? |

Really depends on how you define "replica". A large number of US military vehicles were provided to the Chinese Nationalist government force after WWII and later captured by the communist force during the civil war. Some of them survived and acquired by the studio for movie making. Many parts of such vesicles are often not original, even including the chassis. |
