Chev C60l I.d.

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Justin

As you can see from this Forum CMPs were very adaptable both in their war time and post war lives. How about a picture of your truck, in particular the back of the cab top, I ask this as there are some clues if it has any particular holes behind the drivers seat which might indicate a if it was a radio truck. Another clue is does it have braided metal ground straps connecting all the body and frame parts, this is also an indication of it having been a radio truck.

Both of my C60 Chevy came to me as cab and chassis so my bodies are ones that I found and fitted, in both cases they are US truck bodies similar in design to CMPs that have been adapted to dimensionally fit. Your location in Canada may widen your choice of bodies.

My `42 C60S is equipped with a radio box/shelter which is of a type used by Commonwealth forces. It makes a very nice camper to enjoy truck meets. My `41 C60L is equipped now with a drop side cargo body which turns out to be a very useful truck for hauling things.

Best of luck on selecting a body for your truck.

Cheers Phil
