Default 1940!!

The top photo shows for example a R.C.D. CMP: a Ford # 11 Cab I think, with a 1940 Canadian census number. They are definitely not the 1938 Chevrolet GS trucks although there could be a 1940 Ford 15-cwt 4 x 2 in there somewhere, i.e. the 50 or so GS Fords that were the immediate predecessors of the CMPs. These also had '40'-prefix numbers, whereas the Chev '38 4 x 2s 'had 38-1-x'

Am I right in saying that there appears to be a #12 Cab in the top photo, 4th truck from left? That would definitely suggest 1941 at least.
