Default Two questions for the Gurus.....

Fantastic job on the restored instrument cluster Bob.....

My question for you Bob....... did they use GMC instrument panels in CMPs..?
They are identical in size but slightly different in the visual layout.....? the cab 13 at the Hamilton airport shows a GMC instrument cluster.....

Question for David........ Knowing that Ontario was a strong supporter of the "Lord's day Act" and that all drinkning establishments, movie houses, etc. were closed on Sundays .... can you tell from the production records whether GM/Ford were actually producing vehicles on Sunday on June 8th 1941........Any idea when GM ramped up production for the war effort..?

Alternatively June 13th was a Friday and June 18th a Wednesday...

When looking at the perpetual calendar for Canada in 1941.... I noticed that June 9th, a monday, was shown as a statuary holiday called the "Sovereign's birthday".......

Just curious

Bob
