An update of this thread by quoting from an earlier thread
Wartime T16 pictures (which has gone missing due to a database glitch). Corrected the information and added a page from the book
Arsenal of Democracy: The American Automobile Industry in World War II by Charles K. Hyde. This gives some insight in the build rate of T16 built at Ford's Somerville plant near Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Ford Motor Co. built 13,893 T16 from 1943 through 1945:- S/N 1 through 1000 = USA 40113055 through 40114054 ("Prefix FS assigned to serial numbers 1 thru 1000.")
- S/N 1001 through 6175 = British to assign number
- S/N 6176 through 9923 = USA 40138753 through 40142500
- S/N 9924 through 14443 = USA 40123864 through 40128383 (some apparently cancelled)
