A C60L with Perkins diesel engine:
Chevrolet CMP 4X4 WW 2 Truck. Item number: 280205826673
Quote:
Chevrolet CMP 4x4 1942 ?. This Truck Needs Total Restoration ( But Not For The Faint Hearted ) or would be useful for spares . Also it is fitted with a Perkins P6 Diesel Engine. I Do Not Have The Original Petrol Engine.

There is a Old Type Log Book, (V5). Reg No. LPH 302, date of first registration is 1947 when it was sold in Auction after the war. The wheels fitted on the truck at the moment are not the correct ones, The Correct ones are on a pallet shown in the pictures.

As far as i can work out the truck is about 1942.

Please Phone 01264 323629 or mail me if you have any questions. Thanks John.

Please Note. This is Cash On Collection

Hi Luke, great to hear that! Your dad told me he had sourced those parts, so I was wondering already if you guys bought this truck. Looking forward to see the end result!

I have been told by a prospective buyer from The Netherlands, that this C15A has been sold to a collector in Belgium.

Attached goes some background on this vehicle from the former owner's booklet on CMPs.

Would that have been a 17-pdr tractor as per WHEELS & TRACKS photo? I wonder if there is a plate on it saying who rebuilt it?

David,

It´s difficult to tell as the owner said "The back is a replica of what it is thought it would have looked like from the little info available."

Bodies
 
I can imagine that the rear body would be very similar after rebuild to the MCC 17-pdr conversions, from the Portees. Drawings are available. It is just poissble that the Para Museum might have something on the 17-pdr Chevies. The next question I have is how many did they convert, and what happened to them post-war? The answer to the latter is probably sold off as ideal for agricultural or forestry work, and quickly.
