I have conjected that the chassis was Model C291Q, although C291QL is also possible, although we have noted of course the "." full stop between "Q" and "L" on build plates, and this may just have been an assembly plant designation.

Assembly plant designation?!? Similar to the X-for-export codes? That's an interesting viewpoint! You surely have a nice example on how this was done on General Motor trucks, don't you?

If I remember rightly from the description of the "F22" the end result varied considerably from the F15A and thus C291Q would signify a different model chassis altogether.

Correct, from what we know it basically was an FGT chassis, but without winch.

Yes, I do know of THE person who can tell us I think. Her name is Sandra, aka Sandy, Notarianni, Ford of Canada's Historical Consultant in Oakville, Ontario.

I have e-mailed Ford Canada asking them to put me in contact with her.
