Default First 'CMP for India

I am working on my draft text for my book and reminded myself that in 1937 Ford of Canada produced a 15-cwt G/S pilot truck, with right-hand drive for the Imperial India Army. These were to have WD-style wheels and hubs,. The India Army had requested Ford India and GM India to build 15-cwt. War Office trucks, with dual sourcing through the two Canadian subsidiaries in Bombay. It appears that GM India had also been requested to produce a 15-cwt G/S.
