Ford model designation

[Tony Smith]

Seems to be just Ford USA figures, not the whole WW2 production figures.

Just adding CMPs, MCPs, Carriers, commercial trucks and cars alone built by Ford Canada would add 600,000 vehicles (almost every one with a Ford V8 engine), not including the various other contributions to the war effort.

That's correct. I have the following for Dagenham. In the thread Ford Canada Conventional and Modified Vehicles I posted whatever I have on Canadian and Australian Ford.

Here are the Canadian production figures as recorded in Bill Gregg’s book:

218T: 158"wb Regular Truck

C298W: 158"wb COE Truck
C11AD: 114"wb Truck Type Stn Wagon - British War Dept
C098TFS: 158" British War Dept 3 Ton

In the specifications on the C098TFS, it is described as a 4x2 fitted with a two speed rear axle, PTO tyre pump and 10.50-16 12 ply tyres, in other respects the same as a 1940 3 ton Regular Truck.
Note that some of these trucks are Canadian models and some US.
In David's listing, I can only see the C098TFS listed under SM2252 to India and SM2356 to South Africa.
