I love these photos...history re- written at a stroke I thought but in fact I already had the evidence in front of me!
Interesting photo! That proves that S/M 2020 Ford and probably Chevrolet CGTs were issued to the AIF. As they had domestic census numbers that means in turn that they were assembled in the UK, by Ford at Dagenham amd in the case of Chevrolets possibly by Lep Transport in Chiswick, west London, or GM Ltd in Bamber Bridge near Preston, and then shipped to the Mid-East. I assume that it was to the Mid-East and then it was shipped on to Australia for further service.
The FGT featured is a model EC011QF, from the batch H 4541694 to 542693 assembled in Dagenham under Contract V/4513. There is a photo of one in the IWM collection, photo KID 2340. I previously knew of # 2G17788F which was ARN 50315 and H4542132.
Appologies but long numbers confuse me..a sort of dyscalcula.
