Ginaf – other trucks: the collective page of Dutch heavy vehicles outside the named ranges, from the C and E through the F, G and K to HD and X, 6.6 to 47.9 tonnes unladen weight, DAF cabs on a reinforced Ginaf chassis

This page gathers Ginaf trucks the register could not assign to a named range. Ginaf, founded in 1948 in Veenendaal, the Netherlands (the name comes from 'Geïmporteerde Isuzu- en Amerikaanse vrachtwagens', later from 'Gebroeders Van Ginkel Automobielfabriek'), builds multi-axle and all-wheel-drive trucks for heavy-haulage, construction, fire-brigade and military use, since the 1970s usually with DAF cabs on its own reinforced chassis with up to four axles and 8X8 drive. The range letters C, E, F, G, K and M historically denoted different weight and axle-configuration classes, the following number the tonnage or engine; HD and X denote newer heavy and special chassis.

The register lists here 172 versions from six-cylinders of up to 18,131 cm³, unladen weights from 6,630 to 47,900 kg, gross weights from 9,450 to 50,000 kg and widths from 2,200 to 2,970 mm.

Ginaf is the best-known Dutch make of all-wheel-drive and multi-axle trucks outside the volume manufacturers and supplies mainly construction, fire brigades, the military and disaster relief with vehicles combining series-production DAF engineering with axles and drivetrain designed for extreme off-road capability.

On used Ginaf vehicles, the condition of the transfer case and axle differentials, corrosion on the reinforced chassis frame, and the condition of tyres and portal axles on off-road versions count, and since the cabs come from DAF, the usual checkpoints on engine and electrics there as well; chassis parts run exclusively through Ginaf, cab and engine parts through the DAF network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
