Canadian staff cars: Light Cars, Heavy Cars and Station Wagons

[Hanno Spoelstra]

Rod Shaver posted a trouble lamp for sale. Seeing the C21AS part number I'd say this was part of the kit delivered with a 1942 Ford Sedan or Station Wagon.

For Sale!
Original NOS trouble lamp for a Canadian Ford truck. NOS in original box. Unfortunately the cord is somewhat brittle. But I have never seen one before. Asking $100 plus shipping. I do pay pal. PM me for shipping details. Thanks.

I received one of those trouble lamps with a 3 ton truck I purchased years back. The trouble lamp was made for a standard household screw type bulb, and had an adapter to bring the socket down to an automotive 6v bulb. Most likely the quartermaster or MT section did not care what trouble light was issued to what vehicle, as long as it worked.
