How many of those Matadors and Federal/Trailmobiles were converted? I think those cargo boxes simply came from wrecked CMP 15-cwt trucks, or were left-overs from rebuild programmes.

Looks like at least three , see pic of three Matador Hyster cranes being made with 2nd hand CMP 15cwt bodies -

Thanks Les,

It's a bit small but in the background I can see rare soft-topped 3-tonners, and on the right an Indian Pattern 15-cwt GS truck, which leads me to believe this picture was taken in the South East Asian theatre of war?
