Mike,

Thanks for all that info. These are very interesting vehicles. Maybe a fourth possibility would be imported with returning Middle East vehicles? There were certainly some orphans came back with that lot and there were hundreds of small non-tactical vehicles running around Cairo.

It would appear in all likelyhood, although production of these ran from 1939 that my vehicle is post war. I have had a good look at it and the paint is certainly military and done right up under dash and tight corners which is usually not the case with a respray - suppose there were thousands of gallons of excess army paint sold after the war so it would have been available. Why would anyone paint their new? car army green just after the war?

The investigation proceeds!

Lang
