Default Historic images

Always like seeing historic images of CMPs but this pic looks like the poor Ford had a paint job courtesy of the early Haarlem drug culture!

New pics of F60L with what looks like an ex-GMC CCKW-352/353 body:

More early post-WW2 pictures of CMPs in civilian use, courtesy of Bill Murray in CMPs from all over postwar.

These photos do nothing sitting in my documents files so might as well put them up here.

As noted by Alex, this C60S Cab 12 recently popped up for sale. I had not seen it before in Holland, so I post it up here. You never know what's hiding in the barn! Note the CMP 15-cwt hiding in the background of pic 2.

The C60S had "CMD 60476" painted on the hood.

And it currently sits as a liberation memorial in the owner's garden:

Nice pic of F60L in Dutch Army service, most likely in Indonesia shortly after WW2.

Body looks like an Indian Pattern wooden one?

And who said CMPs never rode on 12:00-20 bar grips?!?!

Somewhere near Dalfsen, the Netherlands. Trucks no longer loved or wanted, waiting for the rust to take its toll. . . . .

Sad!
