1,2. Albion WD 131.
3. Albion ? It's very similar to the 131, but has a different headlight layout. There was also a 133, but I couldn't find any information about it.

Barclays Bank, Palestine, 1936. The passenger car is an Austin 7. It's probably an APD model. I couldn't identify the truck.

1. Ford M1936. 8th Hussars, British Army, Palestine, 1936.
2. Ford M1940. Jordan, Amman, September 11, 1940.
I have the same question about both cars: where were they assembled and from what components (English, American or British)?

900 -13 tyres have a pre-war history. I believe oil company teams were using vehicles fitted with the tyres during the 1930s in the Middle East.

This Ford pickup appears to be fitted with 900-13.
