Question Ford Jailbar front bumper

Just after the war my father bought a new Ford truck.
I am restoring such a vehicle now.
These Jailbar trucks were built in Canada.
Most of these trucks delivered in the Netherlands had a square U formed bumper.

Some people suggest these vehicles were intended for the allied Africa operations. Then the year of manufacture must be about '43.

The truck I am restoring now:
serial number starts with 5G..., single reduction differential, v8 flathead
tires 7.50 x 20, 5 stud wheels, unpowered brakes

Are these trucks originally millitairy vehicles??

Can someone complete my puzzle


Jans
