 Quite funny what they have written about it being 1937. Considering it has 60l 41 painted on the bonnet return. I think they have done a very poor internet research Have seen pictures of this one from another spotter only recently

The thing I noticed firstly was things that AREN'T missing... Instrument cluster including Ford script, nudge bar, panel under radiator seems to be there, goosekneck oil filler, It could be an illusion but it seems to have an F15 rear diff. Still with it's 16's fitted. Either way looks interesting. The last thing I saw on epay listed as Lightning Ridge turned out to be in Wagga so I have asked the actual location of this beastie, I hope it is Wagga, too! H Confirmed: Lightning Ridge.

Points of interest
The two things that stood out for me were the fact the front of the roof hasn't been braced, and did anyone notice how straight the bumper is?

Being a Jeep man and not knowing much about CMP vehicles, my knowledge is limited to what I have seen while with Salesman Bob on "Field Trips" but from what some of the guys have said are missing I thouhgt I would put my 2 cents worth in. Shouldn't there be a couple of those towing loop things mounted on the front bumper, though they may be on the old bumper as the one shown looks to new compared to the rest of the truck...  Cheers Tony

The "D" mounts are there Tony, just missing the D's.
All in all it wouldn't be too bad a Blitz to restore. Thanks Keith for the challenge. Seems there are a few out there who now know a bit more about Cab 12 Ford Blitz's.
