The French mounted 1100-16s tires on the WC62/63s they used in the desert.
If you have a WC truck, and part of the cargo box (front drivers side) has a cut in it for a tire, good chance it was a French issued truck. The box has the cut so the 1100x16 tire would fit in the spare tire holder.
One of the few, Frank
PS. I have this in one of my Dodge books, but it is loaned out, so I am going on memory.
