Water truck dataplate?
Hi!
During some work on my C15A X-water truck I today found this dataplate stuck between some parts. I have done som google searches and W.D Beath & Son, Toronto Canada seem to be a company within water tanks and cans. On the rear side of the plate it has stamped: BEATH ?1 *2C5 *3839?? http://www.surfacezero.com/g503/uplo...270213_010.jpg http://www.surfacezero.com/g503/uplo...270213_011.jpg Have anyone seen this type before? What is it for? Heres a link I found on the WWW showing some papers for a tank level meter. http://www.ic.gc.ca/pics/lm/volume/sdwa/0011.pdf svenn |
W.D. Beath was a member company of the Steel Body Manufacturer’s Association (SBMA) which manufactured the bodies for CMPs during the war.
The 2C5 could be a body code but would not fit with a water tank. The 2C5 was a GS 15cwt with Bren Gun mount for anti-aircraft defence. Clive |
Thanks
Are there any pics available of this type?? Where was this dataplate normally fitted? Svenn |

Which type? The water truck or the GS with Bren? C |
The GS with Bren Gun! Any pics of this type? Does it have the gas tank protection plates like the water truck, or just an ordinary cargo bed?
I have found info on the internet that this firm, W.D. Beath & Son also were into water storage solutions. And my truck has add-ons that indicates a x-water truck, such as tank proctection/step plates, mud guards brackets, PTO and lever with dataplate with info about a pump. Svenn |
