Default The picture

The pic Tony posted looks more like a cab 11 Ford F15...

It's interesting to see most of the captured CMPs are 11/12 pattern.

All the 13 cab 4 wheel drive and 2 wheel drive had the same cab and interior except for extra levers when fitted with a winch. The main differences were minor between Chev and Ford rather then between different sizes of the same make.

You have to decide whether to go all out on a rebuilt captured truck in German service or a captured and used on the battle field type which did not have major changes made.
