LRDG Ford Pilot 15cwt Medical Truck

The Ford Pilot was a 15cwt Ford truck modified from the 1940 Ford 01 Truck. With its distinctive 'V' grille the truck was modified with alternative rear mudguards allowing easier access to tyres and swan neck machine gun mounts. Early versions had doors but later ones had these removed. Usual armament was the Vickers .303 machine gun, a Lewis Gun and the Boys Anti Tank rifle. This version is converted as a medical truck with the weapons replaced by medical stowage.
