The publication number of SE-29-CF would indicate it is the French version of SE-29-C, likely published at the same time, or later. This would make it a post-war publication.

I also have a copy of SE-29-C, and most of the chapters and sections are just reprints of the Canadian wartime Ford Service Bulletins or Military manuals. Canadian FSB's contain much more info than the (often-repro'd) US FSB, particularly on the developments to the V8 Engine, which US dropped for the war years.

Another manual I have is a publication by Ford Motor Company of Australia, which is a "Parts List of Conventional and Modified Conventional Pattern vehicles used by the Australian Army". Again, a distillation of information found in other Canadian publications, but it also contains a chapter on the Marmon-Herrington equipment, which I've not come across in any Canadian book.
