vilero ◊ 2009-01-23 20:31	And what's about this 1931 Ford AA 1'5 Ton?. Really looks like it http://www.autogallery.org.ru/k/fa/31forAAdumptrucklate1931steelcabtop_Bay.jpg

By the law of averages I suggest it's more likely to be the more recent model. As for the country of origin, AFAIK (and Wikipedia) Ford France SA didn't manufacture either truck. Does anyone know whether they were built at Barcelona?
