Ford Parts Numbers Suffix
Exmple
Ford C49Q ####. C = Canadian, 4 = 1944, 9 = 95 HP engine and Q and others suffix? Any List? Thanks in advance |
See the thread Ford model designation for some info.
“Q" stands for Special Chassis variant, Military (mostly 4x4 and/or winch) |
Thank you Hanno!

C49q

I guess the suffix letter "F" in the model number C291QF denotes front/ forward engined as the rear engined model has the "F" substituted with an "R" as in C011QR, C191QR, and C291QR.

See the linked thread: “F” stands for RHD.
It was dropped in later designations, probably as there were no intentions to build LHD versions of these military vehicles |
Ford prefixes.
The F in Ford prefixes stands for foreign, here in Australia it means left hand drive, in US and Canada it means a part for a right hand drive vehicle.
In my working life I spent a lot of time in the spare parts dept. Later I was dealer principal. |

We now know one should not look at the Ford designation to determine which side of the road to drive on, eh?!? :D |
F is foreign ie RHD
C29WQF:
C = commercial vehicle 2 = 1942 9 = 95 hp engine W = cab over engine Q = Canadian War Department quad truck, 4WD F = non-domestic Canadian, ie Foreign, so Right hand drive. The same applies to the "F" in the engine/gearbox combination number in both Canadian and US production, eg 2G37711F - the F denotes configured for RHD chassis, ie non-domestic (RHD) production. Domestic production was all LHD. BB18F6763448 - US type number where F is for non-domestic production, ie for foreign sales for RHD chassis. The 'F' does not mean foreign to Australia, ie LHD - it is a Canadian/US identifier on export items from North American production, no matter where they are located in the world.
