Phil you might vaguely remember one of the participants in Bill Greggs CMP seminar was a guy named Kuno Stockelbach who travelled as the Ford rep through north Africa and the middle east during the war. There was clearly much more than simply military support re transport but I don't know to what extent. Do you have any memory of the specifics 32 years later??

Hi Bob

My memory of Kuno speaking was that he mentioned they knew how to rebuild the Ford V8 and were setup to do it, so they did, if something needed and engine it was likely to get a Ford. The only print evidence that I can find is Blueprint for Victory page 153 but that is talking about a Cadillac. Memory is saying there was something in Wheels&Tracks on the topic.

Cheers Phil
