RESTORED RAF TRUCK
In the aim to add data to your forum, I send you a picture of a restored RAF truck (at least in RAF deliver). The picture was take at an annualy event in north of FRANCE last week, where more than 580 vehicles where parading in the state of SOUCHEZ.
This truck came from BRITAIN with a great number of old military vehicles Regards

I think this is one for Les.
Somewhere on a website, it might have been this one, I have come across a photo of a British Ford truck used in RAF Barrage Balloon units. Memory tells me it was a 7V or similar and had a very streamlined coachbuilt body to carry personnel. I think a winch was installed in the rear and a substantial tow bar on the rear. If Les or anyone else know this vehicle please let me know.

Fordson
Richard, would it have been something like this civvy 7V? Note the drawbar for trailers.

David, From memory of a photo seen before on the internet, yes, similar although the RAF one was even more stylish, with a balloon winch installed within the rear of the body. From What I have read, there were only 3 built. I am pretty sure it is based on a 7V as it was built in Dagenham during the war and was forward control layout.

7v
The MofS charts show that there was a Fordson 7V 5-6 ton chassis with front end, which would have had a body incorporating a cab: the furniture vehicle in the photos illustrates. There was also a chassis-cab version.

Fordson
George, while revisiting this old thread, I wonder what happened to your photo and how your Fordson N looks now?
By the way if you look on the RN Vehicles thread you will see an FAA Fordson in Colour that appears to be matt brown. Is this the same colour as yours?

Ted,
I'm not sure if you have seen this thread if you are new to the Forum - but if you have any RAF vehicle photos to share please post them.
