Not a Fiat.

I can't see any losange.

About this question and my answer, I received a suggestion from a very affordable Professional Autopuzzler: somewhere in the net this truck is actually identified as a Renault (and the wheels match with this description), otherwhere is identified as another marque and model. I think this second one is the right one: so I lock it for frederick59 to find this different name or to obtain evidences that the Renault identification is the correct one.

frederick59 · « **Reply #14 on:** September 26, 2014, 05:04:59 AM »

could it be a Berliet truck when Renault bought it in the 70s?

targhediferro · « **Reply #15 on:** September 26, 2014, 05:08:40 AM »

I have it as a Berliet...but it was surely made before 1970. Now you should easily find the model and coachbuilder.

frederick59 · « **Reply #16 on:** September 26, 2014, 05:33:57 AM »

maybe GAK?

targhediferro · « **Reply #17 on:** September 26, 2014, 05:46:43 AM »

Not what I have.

frederick59 · « **Reply #18 on:** September 26, 2014, 07:41:35 AM »

Renault R2168, but it's not Berliet

targhediferro · « **Reply #19 on:** September 26, 2014, 08:29:33 AM »

AsI told you I believe it is a Berliet...but perhaps it could be a Renault (and perhaps a R2168); to get a point you have to tell me which Berliet model it is supposed to be, or to prove that it is a Renault.

targhediferro · « **Reply #20 on:** October 05, 2014, 12:45:42 PM »

Sorry, unlocked.

Berliet GLR 8 1960 by Heuliez

Yes, well done!

pguillem · « **Reply #23 on:** October 14, 2014, 01:15:26 AM »

It is identified as a Berliet GLR 8 1960 by Heuliez on a dutch site containing plenty of images, but also remarkable identification errors. And it is identified as a Renault 2,5 T from 1952 also bodied by Heuliez on Flickr and Pinterest. Focusing on the logo, it could be a Berliet but the wheels are definitely Renault. This remains a mystery for me. Maybe a mix, at the time when Renault took over Berliet ?
