Anyone recognize this truck?

Hi Luc,

The Ford WOT3 was used mainly by the RAF and I can't say that I have ever seen a photo of one in use with the British Army (except for the photo that Les just happened to post seconds before me!). The Ford WOT3 was 4x2 and only 30 cwt so it was good enough for the RAF to use around the UK but not good enough for the British Army- as from 1944 the British & Canadian Armies declared 30cwts obsolete, though many remained in service. However the model has the '74' unit serial of a Royal Artillery unit in an Armoured Division and yet appears to have the 43rd Wessex Division sign on the opposite side, so I doubt this is based on a real vehicle!
