Bidding ended at £1,500.00, failing to meet reserve.

Colin, I merged Brad´s message into this thread, probably he had not read this one before he posted. Always good to know MLU Forum members are keeping an eye open for CMPs on the market and share information about them here.

Cross-referenced ad from HMVF Forum:

Free truck! CMP Ford F60 LAAT

Time to be sensible and deal with the higher priorities, so I am thinning out my 'collection', which means that my CMP Ford F60 LAAT truck will have to go. It requires complete restoration, but is pretty much all there, or enough to use as patterns. And I have a spare back body as well, again in need of work but usuable. Major missing parts that I can think of are the back of the cab and the cab roof, though I may be able to point you in the direction of one. Postwar Diesel engine of some sort.

All this, and it is entirely free too, to a good home! Located in Aberdeenshire. I don't have any pics at the moment but could probably get some next week. PM me with any questions. Someone must want one?!

I have been told by a prospective buyer from The Netherlands, that this C15A has been sold to a collector in Belgium.

Attached goes some background on this vehicle from the former owner's booklet on CMPs.
