Hi David,

The answer to your question is yes. Ford CMPs did come equipped with round roof hatches like their Chevrolet counterparts. I have a late 1944 F60L with a round hatch and have seen many other late model Fords with them as well (both in person and in photos). Like the Chevrolet's they came into production in the 1944 time frame; however, which hatch (or lack therof) a truck was supplied with often depended on the specific contract. I have never personally seen a 1944 or newer truck with no hatch (round or square - aside from those removed once in civilian hands).

Ian
