I now see what you mean. Looks like the tried to alter "Model" into "Code"?
I'll see if I can see it on the other plate.

That was my guess as well. No idea why that would be necessary, but sure a fun little detail.

Pic of a C8A with census number Z4228599. Not a HUM, but it may help narrowing down the census number range:

Original number found on a 1942 HUW in England. There was discussion but no resolution what the "T" meant.

From the list of vehicles of HQ 1st Can Army previously posted on this forum, I have kept a list of "HUP's" which may or may not include HUM's - it does include HUW's and HUA's - the relevant number ranges are as follows:
4213848 - 4214200 4228061 - 4229581 4236644 - 4236729 The total ranges may have been greater than this of course. I don't think the Ford list has UK census numbers.Not in my copy at least. By the way, the "M" prefix in the census lists stand for Motor car - let's remember English as she was spoke back then! |
