1941 Fordson WOT 2H truck. After 10 years

[Mike Cecil]

Thanks, Richard, that's interesting: the WOT2's registered in Oz all had previous V prefix Brit registrations.

The Aust pre-war system and the AIF system used 'V" for any load-carrying vehicle one ton or less, with or without a canvas canopy and canopy frame, but not 'Z'. The Commonwealth system did not use type designators in the registrations on the vehicles (although the early register recordings still classed vehicles according to the pre-war descriptions).

C motorcycle, M car, V van, L Lorry, H tractor wheeled, X trailer, LX fixed tractor/semitrailer combination, B bus, T tracked vehicle - can't recall others just now.
