Are the ones you refer you to included in your list of Known British Ford S/M Contracts?

To spur the imagination - if anything! - I've included a picture of a 1942 model Ford truck. It's cab survives (only just) in the Libyan Desert. Amazingly, it still sports its roof roundel!

Hello

My name is Davis from India i am going through the net when i see this pic i think its a similar ford truck seems it was taken in Calcutta after the war (late 40s or early 50s).Calcutta was the hub at the time of CBI theater.so after the war many of the world war vehicles where given to the govt department.Its a Ford truck year 1942 but don no the ton capacity but i think its a 1.5 ton check the wood pattern and the canvas top which was quite popular at the time of WW2 here in india. Experts and seniors kindly shed more knowledge on this thank you.I have a similar truck but chevy make which i have recently acquired.

Regards

Davis
