L181462 relates, according to the Chilwell lists, to a Ford Lorry, 1 ton 4x2 GS (V3593 - L181101 - L181600).

I wonder if the marking that we're looking at on the off-side wing is the yellow top corner over blue of the tactical marking for a Royal Artillery Survey Regiment with a white bar below indicating Army troops ? It's my best guess from thumbing through Hodges & Taylor anyway.

There's a couple of fascinating pictures on eBay.de at the moment :-

ebay 170556777285 & 170556790835



I'll leave it to the Ford and Chev fans to fight this one out !

Well, Rich, the top photo is a Chev and the bottom one is a Ford.
As to exactly which models they are, I am not sure but they are really interesting photos.

Yes, top photo is a Chevrolet C15 by the look of it, and not in Allied hands!
