The Fordson WOT (from War Office 'type' or 'truck') was a military truck produced by Ford of Britain in the Second World War. From 1939 to 1945, around 130,000 units were produced at the Ford Dagenham plant with almost half being the WOT2.

Five models, WOT1, WOT2, WOT3, WOT6 and WOT8 were produced. The
WOT1, 2 and 3 were rear-wheel drive and had the cab behind the engine;
WOT6 and 8 were all-wheel drive with a cab over the engine. The same
engine was used across the range - 3.6L Ford sidevalve
V-8 petrol engine delivering 85 hp at 3,800 rpm. The transmission was a
four-speed manual with an additional reduction gearbox for the four
wheel drive models as well as the WOT 3D.
