Photos of the only old chinese trucks I found on a trip along the Burma road March 2004. The large van truck was spotted along the highway but didnt look like they wanted to sell it. The other vehicles were in a museum in Kunming. There was essentially no lights when I first took pictures. Later an attendant showed up and turned some lights on but they did help much with taking pictures

1 This was the only old truck I seen along the Burma road. It may have been a military communications van as the wife of the owner said it contained a genertor. This probably saved it from being run into the ground like they do with their modern trucks.
2 Junk yard dog didnt want me to get to close.
3 this was a 4x4 or may be a 4 x6
4 Chinese guide said this was a "First Auto Works" truck

9 Almost no lighting, had to just point in general direction of vehicle and hoped flash would show something.

26 Old Chinese truck reported build in Kunming which was at the end of the Burma road. Any features to suggest a Chinese copy of the Burma dodge that I have seen reference that it was copied on this truck or the next trucks posted
