Bits
Interesting... I don't think the cluster is a CMP one, but the front shell is the rarer '-FORD-' only script version from around 1943 as opposed to the no name and '-FORD CANADA-' seen from 1944 on.

Thanks Scott
For the heads up - I have an old Jailbar Ford that is missing the dash. Hope I can get this one...

Dash
Hi Keefy - I believe it is an early CMP from the Cab 12 era. A variant of this is in the Bren Gun Carrier albeit without the fuel gauge and no quadrants on the speedometer.
Tony - it looks like a good one to restore. Don't pay too much as I restore these for $300 or scratch build for $400. Also research as to whether your Jailbar has these brown faced instruments or the later silver faced instruments. Bob

Dash Again
I have contacted the seller to ascertain the coding on the rear of the speedometer to properly date this cluster. I have also advised him this is a Ford dash and not also a Chevrolet as in his description. I wish people would do the research before they list things.

Not all of these are Ford parts
The windscreens are Chevrolet:
 The fuel tank likewise:  But these steps are Ford:
