Can't it be swapped for a real wreck? I'm sure the local MLUers would be able to come up with a suitable swap....
I would hate to see a restorable CMP being crushed and the scene ending up on the floor of the cutting room

The reason they are using this truck is because they wanted something odd looking and Military..they had an older uniy mog (?) but the deal fell through, and they had to have the truck there by Friday so the Set Deck could "trick it out"..the truck will play on Monday..so there is no time to try to replace it...makes me sick.
I will see what I can do about parts..or if they will sell the remains..the remains may have to be shipped with a lot of the other set dressing to CA at the end of the show....you never know what they will keep and what they will get rid of. Dean

Dean, If your anyplace near it, please take a few photos of the c15a wire 5 tag, I am restoring a 44 wire 5 and am short on the tag, hoping to make one on a lazer ingraver if i can get a good clear photo.

Same dates
The extra wire 5 I had and Pat Papworths C15A Wire 5 were both built on the same date, June 13th if i remember, My current C15A Wire % was built on July 20th. That's 3 trucks still in Canada built on the same day.
