I've never heard of the designation WOT. Sounds wrong. These vehicles were called lorries by the British in the 1940s. Not trucks. So it seems unlikely. I'm happy to be proved wrong though, if someone knows more… |

I've never heard of the designation WOT. Sounds wrong. These vehicles were called lorries by the British in the 1940s The UK arm of Ford produced a number of vehicles for the British Army during WWII with names starting with the letters WO. Specifically regarding trucks Ford made the WOT1, 2, 3, 6 and 8. |
