My bets are.....
The yellow is original airforce colour......
Here is a pic of a known airforce truck located in Eastern Ontario.... it has been manipulated/darkened to better read the numbers. It still has the airforce crest on the cab doors...... and the original winch. May 9th 1944...... and it has the large axles and 20 inch rims.... box has been cut up to accommodate a wing plow...... David please add to your "repertoire"..... Bob C.

Thank's for the tip Rob .I never saw this litle plate till you said where to look .
CMP 60 015.jpg Then I got out my air craft paint remover and under the door decals is the Royal Air Force decals . So now we know the rest of the story . A little knowlage goes a long way . Where would one ever find the winch that goes on the truck ? Maybe I can make one out of a truck rearend .Would there be a manual for this winch ? George

George. The winch is a very special piece of kit on the truck because of the way it mounts. Has two large flange bearing on each side.
 These are pictures of the progress of our truck. These were taken on her first drive in about thirty years.  Still missing left fenders but it's getting there. Rob

Thanks Cliff. I was just referring back to what George said, trying to make one out of a truck rear end. It's completely different the way it's mounted.

I have the flange bearing brackets for the winch .There is a cab here that I might get a fender for you . You should not have any trouble getting a fender .My friend here has a lot of 1100x20 used army tires if you would rather have them than what is on it now .I have two fuel tanks but no battery box .Is that a carrier for gas cans in front of the tool box? Has anybody got a picture of the radar trailer that it pulled ?
