Are there any photos of Dennis AM30 / 40 cwt and are any left in preservation?

The Dennis AM30/40 cwt was built for the RAF and used in the UK during WW2.

Despite it supposidely being common, I have only ever seen one clear photo of one, shown below.

Do any others exist?

I know of a few smaller Dennis wartime tipper trucks, one not a million miles from me tucked in a barn. But I haven't seen one of these.

Apparently about 1,000 were made for the RAF but I guess like the Austin K2, had only a 2 ton capacity were not so good in civi life.

Shame really, I think they are quite nice looking trucks.

Is this one?

[LarryH57]

Yes, thats a Dennis AM 30/40 cwt , and quite rare to be in the Middle East and to have a box body..

According to Bart Vanderveen, only around 1,000 were built (or nearly 1,000) 

So I guess it was not so useful  on the civi market as a Bedford QLD

Many thanks for posting

Its A dennis but the wrong model this is a much larger capacity, I would suggest a tipper originally

Its a Dennis Pig, like the one above in Malta

I guess its impressed
