Anthony,
Gordon Piro in Yellowknife has a good 1B1 box that's right for your Cab 12. It's a long ways up there but it would be a good excuse for a summer road trip. I know because I did it a couple of summers ago. Here's a couple of pix I took of it in the back of an F15A.

F8 numbers
Hi Anthony
My F8 is serial 21435 (340 behind yours) and my engine number is 45176 (799 behind yours). My date is 11/7/41 which I assume is 7th Nov 41 only a few days behind yours. Wonder if the serial numbers were in sequence for all Ford CMP's not just the F8's in which case 340 in five days might be reasonable. Interesting that yours has the FFW speaker tube cut-out in the cab and mine doesnt. So did they make this cab mod for the FFW only? My truck is also C/D 98. Cheers David Kingston

More on F8
Anthony
Now that I see your pictures, your truck does not have the FFW speaker tube cut out. I was puzzled if it did have because there was less reason for one with the long box which yours would have had ( along with TWO fuel side tanks) than with the short box FFW which had a long gap between the cab and the rear box. Not sure if the rear window insert is original or not - mine doesn't have it. I see that someone moved your door handles down quite a bit! David

Starting with the Acme 4 spd
Thought Id do up the trans. luckly it came with a 1948 spare I had to use some shafts and needle bearings. Found the tail bearing and seal on the shelf at my parts store.
Does anyone know what color the shifter should be, looks like the whole top plate and shifter may have been a body color. Does anyone know where the compressor hose runs to?
