Two new pages of Western Desert images

David, a question if I may.

In all of the Ford Germany literature I have and it is certainly not complete by a long shot, I have no indication that they did a pickup. Station Wagons (Estate Cars) yes but no pickups.
The pic in this thread is a dead ringer for a US version of that type and the question I pose is was it not imported from the US and not Germany? It certainly does not appear to be re-bodied, the lines are pure US, and it is LHD.
Not disagreeing with you, just curious.
As a BTW, does anyone have any more information on the Ford and GM agents in Egypt, particularly on the ranges of vehicles imported and sold and most importantly photos of examples whether military or civilian?

Years ago I contacted the "history" blokes at Ford, GM and Chrysler to try to get such info regarding a whole range of countries and basically drew a blank. Hopefully, there is someone out there who has the gen on this type of stuff.
Cheers
Bill
