I am in Alberta and working thru restoration on a F15A, the numbers on the Cab appear to be RCC or RCS 41759, the data plate has the Chassis # as 41790.
The truck was picked up locally in the Edmonton area, it had been converted to a wrecker unit and the rear deck was modified, the deck appears to be a welding deck as the original mounts for a portable table behind the cab are still in place as well as the side toolbox, the fenders were modified above the rear wheels and were cut and dropped down to create a flat deck. The data tag veh code is F15441-M-MACH-1. Would like to find out what the numbers and letters on the cab mean, are they uunit #'s or just vehicle #'s? Would it be correct to assume the deck is for a welder? What other markings would be correct for the truck? Pictures attached. |

The letters on the door are PCC which stands for provisional condemnation certificate. Basically it means the army is getting rid of it. I cannot say what the numbers signify after the PCC....perhaps the date of April 17 1959, but it more likely will be the certificate number. I have seen other CMPs with the PCC number on the doors as well as on the cowl like yours.
It does look like it was a KL. The welder on those was very heavy, so the truck would have had a few extra leafs on the back axle. If you make it into a regular cargo truck, you may find the ride a little harsh, but then again none of the CMPs feel like they are gently riding on water. |

Nice pics, and a great looking truck. My tags are missing on my KL, I was under the impression they left with the missing rht door. I better have a look on the top of my dash for some holes.
Thanks K Armitage |
