Default Shift plates

Hi everyone

I was just given one of these shift plates and was wondering if its the proper kind for my C15A Cab 13 truck. It's original in unissued condition.

It's not a C15A because the plate says the transfer case automatically engages the front axle WHEN SHIFTING INTO LOW. The C15A transfer case doesn't have a low speed, only 2 or 4 wheel drive.

Here's a brass GM of Canada Ltd "transmission and transfer case gearshift instructions" plate.

Anyone recognise it?

Dan Cladwell just sent me an email with the following picture of a shift plate for a C15A.

Thanks Dan

Default Chev CMP shift plate

Hi Jordan:

I'm working on a C60S that is missing the shift plate for two speed transfer case. Are you interested in parting with yours?

Cheers, Mike

Default Sargent Who?

Tha reminds me of a funny story about a Sgt. Hugh Hungwell, of the NorthWest Mounted Police.

"Are Hugh Hungwell? was the answer to an unasked question.:
