Default details, details, details

Gentlemen: I'm some what new to Maple Leaf Up as far as input ,but have reviewed it over the last 3 or four years. I am currently restoring or fine tuning my 1944 Chev C60L, GS box. I am trying to get some details on how the shovel and pick handle and head were attached to the front of the box. Also, I am looking for a battery cover plate. Photos or parts would be appreciated. I will post pictures as soon as I can figure out, how all this works!!! Kind regards....Robert P.S. I'm also having restored, the last surviving prototype 1943 Chev. Hup ZL wireless repair truck. Photos will be posted as soon as I can figure out, how this all works!!! Computer illiterate....R

Robert,
Most of us started out that way. This forum MLU is one of the best for helping you to achieve your aim. The quantity and quality of knowledge in this forum is amazing.
Not only will you find all you need about your Blitz, but how to upload your photo's etc.
Welcome

Default Well you have come to the right place to ask CMP question

Here is a starting point on your battery box.

Plus there is a lot of other info on C60

Cheers Phil

Charlie,

I hear that there is one to 'give away' in NB as advertised on this forum just yesterday.

If you pay for gas ( and beer ) I will accompany you with my truck and trailer to go get it. It is near Miramichi - I know a place for a nice planked salmon down there ...

Please advise ASAP.


Stewart

The Rotters have already been, seen and grabbed.......just kidding.
Actually, I was thinking the local team of Mike and Craig might have beaten us all to it.
