Ford CMP at Reynolds
I was in at Reyolds museum on the weekend to buy a few parts as they are selling off all the odds and ends and found a CMP that is rather odd in that it is left hand drive Ford, with exterior steering box, engine side covers that fold and lift up, odd dash and no engine cover inside the cab, 2 wheel drive with 16 tires. anyone have any idea on the year or model looks like pre 11 or 12 cab.

It looks like one of the late 39 (1940 model year) pilot trucks to me. I was working on the one in Shilo......hopefully I'll be back on it in the new year.
Any idea what the asking price was on this one at Reynolds?

Wow...
Amazing to see one of the pilot Fords so unmolested and crying out to be saved!

 See Gregg's Blueprint for Victory page 18 - this is the Ford 1939 prototype III, the last prototype model prior to the adoption of RH drive and the standardized Cab 11. This is truly an amazing find and I am surprised no one mentioned it earlier. Someone should notify the CWM, methinks.... H.
