Hi Keith,
I think you are correct, it does appear to be a Morris 15cwt. The reference points I can make out are:
1. the leading edge height of the left wing and the clearance of the wing from the bonnet.
2. the bottom edge of the windscreen is lower than the height of the body side, and it seems to slope up toward the centre. The Guy Ant body is the same height as the bottom of the windscreen.
Cheers,
Dave

What is that !!?? Is it a Swedish pre-war Scana? And how did so many get into German hands?

There seems to be a continuous flow of period pictures on Ebay, showing Allied military vehicles in German service.

Attached are two pictures for sale now on Ebay. Two shots of the same Ford, misidentified as a Morris C8.
