Hi Gordon! The link would not work for me...don't know if anyone else can get through.
This is my info on S/M 2012: L 4450258 4451757 5 SM 2012 1,500 LORRY 30 CWT.4 X 4 G/S EX-FRENCH 143” W.B. INCLUDING SERIALS # 8833986 AND # 8834236 VF-40x T-203B [T-203-B-143] L.H.D. Serials possibly # 8833573 and up I am not sure where I got the actual known serials from..possibly from WHEELS & TRACKS? The serial # runs are from the Parts List schedule that I have copies of. |

I can see the logic in that the two actual chassis numbers you quote are 400+ and 660+ into the range immediately above where the VF USA production ended, so if there were 1500 trucks that would flesh them out as being run immediately after the US military VF production ended.
No evidence that any survive, I was just wondering if they did come to the UK as the VK's did, or if they were allocated overseas like the D8A's immediately after that went to Egypt. I don't have any of the US military VF's with a build date after May 1940, so these would have to have been built between about June and August 1940 and more likely to have been earlier rather than later. Thanks again.
