Sunbar ◊ 2016-03-22 22:00	Fordson 15cwt van introduced October 1937 It needs too be identified more fully, if possible. edit: It looks to share the same chassis and engine as this Fordson V8 'ARP' unit... -- Last edit: 2016-03-22 22:06:22
Sunbar ◊ 2016-03-23 11:11	Model 85 I guess, if based on these... http://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1938-FORD-85-PICKUP-15563 http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C585484
