Default March 42 Fords

Nothing for March 27th but I have found a couple assembled here in Australia on March 13th 1942:

F60L Serial 37206 3G19676F SM2104 Mar 13 42

F60L Serial 37147 3G19603F SM2104 Mar 13 42

Presumably the chassis and many other parts for these would have come off the production line at Windsor some months earlier.

Like everyone else, would love to learn more about your collection, and welcome here.

Welcome to the forum. You'll find pics of them on this thread:
Reynolds Museum
I wonder how many others came from there.

Hi Keith
Thanks for responding from way down under lol. I agree with you most where made at Windsor. In the pile of rust I aquired is a 42 Chev 60cwt Dumptruck Airforce colors. cab very rough but have others. On another truck was the military dump box and on another was the proper hoist so can build it up complete along with my 3 15cwt fords What is nice is it has all the tags. Also have 2 1944 60cwt that where dental trucks but no vans on them one is a firetruck now which was used by Alberta Forestry Service. Some of my trucks pics already on here through the links to Stan Reynolds Museum . Have a Great Day Arlon

Default Calgary trip?

Rob,
Why don't you load up the dental box on a trailer,Come out to the Calgary gun show this weekend with us and we can use it for a camper,make a deal with Arlon,we can go to his place,lift it onto his CMP frame and then come back with us?Sound like a plan? Plus you get to see the biggest gun show in Canada!Think about it.
Arlon,
I will bring the plates with me to the show and you can have a look at them and decide if you can use them.
Regards,Derk.
