I went to the rod and custom car show in Saskatoon on the weekend and was surprised to see this C8 on display. The old guy who owned it said his dad bought it new from army surplus just after the war and put a 150 bushel grain box on it plus a set of overload springs. The present owner built the box that's on it. He must have looked at a 1B1 then made it something like it. He also said he got five 13 inch tires out of California from a surplus place about 10 years ago but couldn't remember any details.
David Moore, I tried to send you that picture but your email refused it for some reason.
