Thanks for sharing your picture. As for finding a C15A Cab 12, the short answer is "no, it is not easy to find them restored". But try checking out the thread CMPs for sale in England, go to the last page to see one for sale quite recently . . . maybe it still is?!? The former owner is a member on here, and he made a beautiful job of the restoration. HTH, Hanno |
Question for the X-spurts....
Is it typical to see a cab 12 still in service in Spring 1943 in the UK....
....or is it because of it's specialized role as a wireless truck...? Curious!!!! Bob C. |

The kiwi troops probably thought, that was as good as it could get, at the time.

No probs - hope the pic is of interest. I have quite a few pics of Canadian Armoured and Softskin vehicles in Signals roles in my collection... maybe will let some more loose in the public domain sometime. Cheers Tim |
