Wow, the brakes must still be so good that the drivers head went through the windscreen when it stopped. :D

Thats Ford for ya!

Bits
 
Interesting... I don't think the cluster is a CMP one, but the front shell is the rarer '-FORD-' only script version from around 1943 as opposed to the no name and '-FORD CANADA-' seen from 1944 on.

Thanks Scott
 
For the heads up - I have an old Jailbar Ford that is missing the dash. Hope I can get this one... :thup:

Dash
 
Hi Keefy - I believe it is an early CMP from the Cab 12 era. A variant of this is in the Bren Gun Carrier albeit without the fuel gauge and no quadrants on the speedometer.

Tony - it looks like a good one to restore. Don't pay too much as I restore these for $300 or scratch build for $400. Also research as to whether your Jailbar has these brown faced instruments or the later silver faced instruments.

Dash Again
 
I have contacted the seller to ascertain the coding on the rear of the speedometer to properly date this cluster. I have also advised him this is a Ford dash and not also a Chevrolet as in his description. I wish people would do the research before they list things.

:bang: Bob

Not all of these are Ford parts
 
The windscreens are Chevrolet:

The fuel tank likewise:

Folks,

Attachment 47633
There is a complete set of Ford CMP tail & brake lights currently on ebay.
They come still with the original box.


http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....m=251009803960

The seller is an acquaintence of mine!

Private_collector 07-03-12 11:34

Tank Jack?
 
Er......anyone in the market for a 22.5t jack.
It's Made in Australia, so it's bound to work :D

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/WW2-Tank-...item27c4547c64

Actually, I wouldn't know if it works or not. Just came across it a little while ago. At 22.5t, this thing would almost lift an old Jag I once had :D

Dash Again
 
Hi all - if you look at the Ebay listing I have ben advising the seller of details pertaining to this dash. It is a March or June 1940 manufacture.

I won't be bidding but I know of at least two others who will be... this may turn out to be a very good auction for the seller. :fry:

Missing horn, drivers door and seat but always shedded according to the blurb. Popular wheelbase too. It does say it's fitted with a pto, but doesn't mention whether that's on the gearbox or if a 2 speed transfer case has been fitted. Looks like a Sunshine roof sheeted over with the hood bow cut out.

That's the power of MLU! OK, own up whoever bought it! :no4:

Looks more like the horn wire which goes down the steering column, and I don't even think it's a blitz one, although it may fit.

Its not the same (the wheel hub is different) but I wonder if it's got a shared history?

Bumper
 
So who won the bumper? I was watching the countdown (but not bidding) and watched the snipes coming thick and fast in the last minute!

I thought it would go for about $120 so not far out at $123.05. Good buy at that price.

Ryan 18-03-12 13:07

Not me Keith, offically sniped.
How'd you go Howard?
