1938 G/S trucks

In practice, the trucks were ordered in two separate contracts, the first was C.D. 689 on 11 March 1938 for 35 trucks, at a Contract Price of C$102,590.47. After that was a further order under Contract Number C.D. 746 on 20 April 1938 for 16 trucks at a contract price of C$46,158.81, to include a 10% profit in each case. So much for the C$1,500 each as projected! Because of the two orders, the trucks were split into two series when built on the production line: Serial Numbers 815312801 to 815312835 inclusive, and then sometime later, Numbers 815314928 to 815314943 inclusive

Numbers Z 38-1-2 to 52 were allocated.
