Default Radio versions

The ordinary half ton Command Car is not at all uncommon, but usually a lot more cut about than that one.

You can tell it is an original Radio Command (much rarer) by the fact it has the big battery box in the right hand runningboard.

They made a bunch of radio 3/4 ton WC58 too, but then moved to just putting radio kits in ordinary Command Cars and Carryalls (with 12 volt systems on the 3/4 ton WC series of course)

Late war they stopped all that nonsense and just made 12 volt weapons carriers which could take the same radio kit.

Hmmm, APT Canadian Weapons Carriers were late war - were they 6 volt or 12 volt then?
