Nevertheless I'm now convinced it's a FGT, based on the fuel tank brackets, which are both in the FGT position. In other words it hasn't been shortened, it's just a FGT with a 12 gallon fuel tank. That's why there's no rear step mount, which you'd expect on a F15A. There are other indications too but they're nowhere near as conclusive, eg. the cab of course, and the presence of CMP rear fairlead pulleys on the crane, and possibly the top plate still on the chassis. Unfortunately the rear crossmembers have gone to make way for the cable apparatus, but I'm expecting the glovebox to be there which will provide confirmation when I finally get onto the seller. If the front shell has been changed the bifurcated crossmember will confirm the chassis as FGT.
