Question for David Hayward: captured COE truck

[Bill Murray]

Thank you both so much for your quick replies.

I too had raised the question of a reversed photo earlier on and I think that may be the answer. Sadly, there seem to be no numbers or letters on the photo that would give us a positive answer.

The wheels, which I have looked at a bit closer, seem to be closer to Ford than a GM product and Cletrac is correct, the main headlamps look awfully "Fordy".

Not to leave our GM expert, David, outside of the question, but how in the bloody, bloody would a COE Ford MH of any type end up in Africa???

I have little/no info on Ford in Egypt or any of the other North African countries during that time period, other than that I am aware that Marmon Herrington did do a lot of business with Iran, for example, and perhaps some Ford MH vehicles snuck in there. The other MH Iranian vehicles were non Ford.

I love a good mystery and hope you guys can continue to post some ideas.

Cheers
Bill
