serge Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Hello My « PSEUDO » will be Serge and I was born in NORTH of AFRICA 63 years ago and now I live near PARIS in FRANCE. My first connexion with world war two military vehicle occurs when I was 5 years old. My father was loocking to buy a truck and he led me in a French military camp where a lot of truck should be released. I remember that there was mainly CANADIAN TRUCKS (CHEVROLET and FORD CMP, DODGE T110 and also French lorries as FORD F798, CITROEN P45) “In fine” my father bought a DODGE T110 D60 L5 with a steel body and with light stone paint. Maybe was it a relic of the eight army of MONTGOMERY. Some 40 years later I found an other DODGE T110 in south of FRANCE. During my visit of the scrap yard I discovered two FORD CANADA F60L. I bought one of them and the DODGE T110. After restoring the DODGE, I used it for the main meeting in FRANCE (LE PAS DE CALAIS LIBERE) where every year we meet british military vehicle collector. I am an daily reader of the MAPPLE LEAF FORUM and some time I post a reply to some threat. As you asked me, I join pics of my two canadian lorries. I own also a DODGE WC51 late model (composite body) and a JEEP M38A1C (C because it was used with 106 mm gun). I am an "active member" since near 25 years of MVCG PARIS ILE DE FRANCE.

79x100 Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 I don't think it would be a bad thing if the 'British' section were to be amended to 'British and Commonwealth' Always nice to see RHD trucks ! Quote
