See the Ford MCP trucks in the background of the attached picture (taken at the Ford Canada plant at Windsor, Ontario) - those must be C098TFS trucks.

You do not have a larger version of this picture, do you?
I am interested in the F60H's in the front.....

p.s. I have seen a small paperback on German Fords of WO2 once. This book showed several Fords and most of them carried the cabin as seen above. But, you could also see this cabin evolve during the war.....some strange grilles (above the normal grill in the front), simplified wheelarches, simplified wooden cab etc. The Germans probably produced this 1940 model Ford up til the end of WW2 for military use.
This is what I mean


Oh and this one:


Phew, Is this one ugly!
