Default Desert?

I remember an open one and a closed one used in the desert, with sand tyres.

Didn't George Formby do a tour in North Africa in a Woody?

If this link is too long, Google ENSA NORTH AFRICA and look at the girls standing on a Woody tailgate.

Bob Schutt of Monto Queensland has done nice restoration of one. We saw it last year at the Canungra swap meet. His is ex Australian Middle East. He had a story in Wheels and Tracks and also the American MMVCA

Great vehicle, but again the later CIIAD type. Many thanks.

Hi Gordon,

Snow scenes fantastic and by the age of the shot most certainly appears to bo a 1940 model, or earlier. The other references you point to are the later C11AD/F models.
