Citroën T45

The Citroën Type 45 was the second most important truck in Finland during the WW2 and for a long time afterwards. Small-scale imports had begun as early as the early 1930s, but the bulk of them arrived in Finland during WW2 via Germany under a slightly more unusual arrangement. The T45 appears in numerous movies because of its long production run and varied history. Never in the lead role, but rather in various supporting roles.

They are quite short general introductions, not diving too deep into technical details.
