Re: GM Semis
Sure is! BTW, that truck at the pump appears to be one of those Fageol-Peterbilts, either a rebuild of an old Fageol by Peterbilt or an early Peterbilt with left over Fageol parts in it. Either way not uncommon in California during those days.

Re: GM Semis
Per the guy that knows old peterbilts.
It will not have been military surplus. This Peterbilt has aluminum radiator, which Peterbilt stopped building from mid-1942 through February 1945. The bumper is Fall '45-'49. If the emblems were not airbrushed out of the photo, it is possible the truck was rebuilt with newer hood and radiator shortly after the war, without the emblems. Trucks were very scarce at the time, this was done a fair amount.

Bekins Van Lines was all over Southern California and they liked GMC's.
