HI all; the British/ commonwealth units in Egypt had 4X2's of '39 and '40 mfg. Civilian cabs with wide tyres. These trucks are pictured in Ford Trucks publication of the Early V8 Ford Club. Newc

I do agree that 4 x 2 were used but did the Canadian army use Cab 13 4x2 's ??

That question is the very subject of this thread. We need to collect information from data plates, period photos and production orders to find the answer. I know one of the vehicles used to liberate my home town was a Cab 13 4x2 15-cwt truck. But that in itself is not enough proof. Let's keep searching!
