This guy was on another forum for weeks. Got the truck for free and wanted to convert it to a German truck for re-enacting. Finally gave up on the idea and is now selling it on ebay. My question for the experts is, Is the cab correct? The wipers seem different, fuel filler neck sticking out of the cab on the right side, looks like no provision for a swing out windshield. Is this a post-war cab? Maybe early closed cab? Just wondering.

If there are no hinges visible and/or there is the cab gas tank, then yes it is a civy cab.
