This is walfasized Studebaker US6 - a class of 2 1⁄2 ton (2268kg) trucks manufactured by the Studebaker Corporation during World War II, produced in the United States from 1941–1945.In 1940 the US Army set a requirement for a 6x6 truck with a 12 ft (3.66 m) long cargo area and 2 1⁄2 ton (2,268 kg) off-road payload. Studebaker and Yellow Coach (a GM brand) submitted very similar models, with many shared components, while International Harvester submitted its own unique design. All three were accepted and in production by 1941.
Production was divided between Studebaker producing for Lend-Lease, Yellow (later GMC) producing for the US Army, and International Harvester producing for the US Navy & Marines. These three primary manufacturers produced over 900,000 2 1⁄2-ton trucks in all, in both 6x4 and 6x6 axle/wheel versions, with approximately 200,000 Studebaker trucks built in thirteen variations, including dump truck and tractor models.
