Ford/Marmon-Herrington Umbau-Wagen

[Javier de Luelmo - Diesel]

Hello all. I found last night this pic I downloaded time ago from the Time website. It was taken, if i remember well, in 1940 at the Belgium-France border, and the text said something about a column of Belgian Army fleeing from capture into french territory. I'm sure I haver read somewhere about a batch of Antwerp hurriedly semi-assembled Fords (look at the wooden seats!) that escaped to France in the last days of the invasion and which would be completed later. And sure anybody here knows more about that...
