CMPs for sale in Canada
 

I came across some stuff that's for sale and told the collector I'd post it on this forum for him since he doesn't have internet access. His name is Mike and he's situated near Melfort, Sask. Phone him at 306-277-2004. The CMP is a 1945 HUP staff car with the sliding windows. It's mostly there and is driveable.

Here's the Penguin pictures. The Caddy engine has been replaced with a 318 Chrysler but the rest looks original. The tracks are good and it was used this fall in hunting season.

Here's some misc CMPs he has for sale too. The two on the left are F15s and the other is a F30S with the crossmember for the winch.

C15a on milweb
 

Now, that's a temptation. Some little voice has been tellng me it's time I got serious about a long-tem CMP project, after playing about with Land Rovers for some time. I was just eyeing another C15A chassis and cab on offer on CONVOY ads.
As for this on on milweb, it would be the logistics of getting it from Quebec to Manitoba ... tempting, though.

Try getting one from Manitoba to Tampa!!

Jonathan:rolleyes:

Aaah, you must be the fellow who bought that15cwt from Derk - he mentioned you were working out the movement details. I had a look at it at his place a few weeks back ... it's what got me thinking it was about time I pursued my own, when I saw that one was going south.

Yes, Mark, its me, the silly american, who wanted a CMP for 10 years. The weird part is Gordon posted the ad and he was the 1st person to help me learn about CMPs!

Still calculating how to get it here....sigh.

Jonnie: I'm beginning to understand your problem, after looking into various options ... might look for something closer to home.


Oooh, James ML - very nice. I had a Triumph TRW a few years back, but in my dreams would really like Norton 16H

Fellas, I recently aquired a chassis w/ engine that I wish to sell.
It is a Chev w/ 216cid engine that runs very well.
I believe this chassis is a CGT. It has a 2 speed transfer case and what appears to be the bracket surface for the winch pillow blocks to mount to. The left frame rail is bent and much of the cross members are in bad shape.
Realistically, it is a good parts machine at least for the engine and drivetrain as well as a few takeoff pieces.
Asking $600, PM me if interested.

Can you......
 

Hi Chris

Is it possible to take pictures of the engine...dist side....front... carb side....... focus on fuel line..... vacuum lines..... throttle linkage and oil line to filter if any....... I am actually trying to help out Francesco in Italy with his rebuild......

Thanks Chris

Bob

I could be interested in the transmission, Is the rear bearing retainer intact. How about the front Brakes, are they the larger CGT type?

No longer for sale
 

As of yesterday, the project has become mine. Let the fun begin.

Thank you.....
 

Big thanks to Hanno for pointing out that the truck was available relatively in our backyard..... sure shows how much the world has shrunk with the web...... a worth while project when one considers that about half of the resto bull work as already been done...... and with a rebuilt engine.

Almost enough parts to make two trucks..... save from the crusher by Kaptain Natcho.......

Re: No longer for sale
 

Grant,

Your patience paid off for you. The new baby looks to be in good shape. It would be grand if we three all had rolling frames this spring. Are you up for the challenge?

It would be nice...
 

but I would like to check several details of the PO's (not Petty Officer, previous owner) work. Such things as CV joints, did the axles get cleaned inside after sandblasting and before reassembly, state of the brakes and lines, remove the attempted conversion to LHD power steering and install RHD steering, get master cylinder in place so the lines can be filled and checked for leaks.

I won't be able to follow your sage advice to "take lots of pictures before you take it apart" since the PO did much disassembly and a fair bit of reassembly. As you saw, in some ways it resembles a 1:1 model kit with (almost) all the pieces there, but no instructions included. You know, "some assembly required".

Re: Thank you.....
 

Good to hear this truck has been given a good home by a forum member (not often that I get feedback on posts like this, possibly because us ROTTERS tend to keep these sort of leads as secrets).

Congrats Grant, keep us posted on progress!

That answers my questions
 

congratulations.....You won me out. If there was no takers on the trucks and parts I was negotiating my 42/43 MB project with Luc as a swap.

Regardless at least they have a good home....my CMP search continues.

Cheers and all the best.
