Whilst I am making enquiries about the record cards, etc. it occurred to me that the conversion of the basic truck to 4x4 would have been ideal for the snow-clearing units. There were of course the three batches of FWD HAR-01 trucks, some of which were converted to snow-blowers but these had RAF serials and are thus not in the WD Census List. On that basis is there any evidence that the RAF used C29T M-H conversions?
