Just sharing a few basic things I found. The first comes from "Cars of Canada" by Durnford and Baechler, and merely points out that beefed-up passenger-cars and station wagons were used by the Canadian military. Also, a reserve pool of 4,500 new cars was set aside for essential civilian use (compared to over 500,000 in the U.S., I might add, the very last of which wasn't delivered till 1947).

The second and third are from "British Woodies from the 1920s to the 1950s" by Colin Peck. They describe how Ford of Canada got involved in building wagons for the British, and give contract numbers for the C11ADF. Since the last C11ADF wagons weren't delivered till 1943, it seems reasonable to conclude that no C21ADF was made, with updated 1942-model styling.

(One image is turned on its side and I can't get it to right itself, even though it's correct in my computer; please save and rotate it on your viewing device.)
