dsl ◊ 2019-07-21 18:23	Suggest rename to 1960+ Ford Thames 800 to match other examples in N, although I'm unclear if Thames as make was used 1957-59 (comments here and here). I also have doubts also about 10cwt name in Europe - 800 (for 800kg?? which if my sums are correct is more like 15cwt for the heaviest 400E version??) seems more likely. And as a stray thought, would LHDs have been 401E?? Never seen a reference, but it's odd in comparison to Ford car practice if they weren't.
