In addition to the Ford G8T and the Dodge WF-32, the Chevrolet 3116 was another commercial 1.5t 4x2 truck, delivered to Russia in the earlier stages of the aid.
It had the short 134.5in. wheelbase with the 2DT rear tyres and was generally fitted with stake-and-platform body.
Very similar in appearance, but with the more common 160in. wheelbase, was the Chevrolet 4409 1½-ton 4x2 truck.
