Default Canadian Loyd ???

Guy’s i have another mystery.
Got some photos of a Canadian workshop and they show a loyd, but not the loyd carrier build in Britain.
It seems a canadian prototype based on the loyd but much better and stronger.

?????????????

I've seen those photos before here on the forum, it never got beyond the prototype phase.

Maybe they used a "proper" V8 chassis, i.e. a Ford Canada CMP chassis instead of a Fordson 7V one?
