Hello My name is Davis from India i am going through the net when i see this pic i think its a similar ford truck seems it was taken in Calcutta after the war (late 40s or early 50s).Calcutta was the hub at the time of CBI theater.so after the war many of the world war vehicles where given to the govt department.Its a Ford truck year 1942 but don no the ton capacity but i think its a 1.5 ton check the wood pattern and the canvas top which was quite popular at the time of WW2 here in india.

I was the first big collector in Northern Alberta of every thing and I have a RCAF 1942 half ton My Uncle tried to buy one during the war but they weren't available to civilians so he bought a one ton Ford. There is still some blue paint on it .This is the only one I know of .

That's a Mercedes DB 701, not an Opel Blitz.

Ford model codes
The deeper you go into the Ford model codes the more confosing it becomes.
I was thinking about the letter D in the code C11ADF and wonder if it comes the model D used for the 15 CWT light truck , a model between the model C 10 CWT (1/2 ton) and model Y one ton.. One question, Does the C11ADF use the 15 cwt axle with full floating hubs amd a single join / partition in the rear axle (like the bigger truck diff). . The 15 CWT axle uses 4.1 ratio gears while the 1 ton axle uses a lower gear ratio and bigger brakes.

I seem to remember the C11ADF uses the F8 8cwt rear axle, and the C11AS used the normal civil running gear, but I am sure Ian McCallum can tell you more. Regarding the "D"....I am sure this has come up on the forum before regarding a 4x4 chassis Indian Pattern (?)
