David, that vehicle is a credit to you

It's a beautiful piece of history, restored with obvious passion & care.

Your memorial plaque to Carl is a great touch.

What you gonna restore now?

Awesome work David! Thanks for posting all your experiences during the project.....it will certainly help me and other with our projects.

Here are some shots of the correct lights. The shot on the 8cwt is a bit too dark, and note that they have the blackout shields in them.

Thanks!

Andrew: I would love an extended vacation and would work for my keep. Is your wife a good cook?

Tony: Don't know if Carl was a purist, but hope he would have appreciated the effort it took to get his truck back on the road again..

As for the next project, I have a 1934 1.5 ton Dodge that has been waiting patiently for it's turn...

Alex: Hope you get some good information out of the last few years of me posting. Spent many hours researching some things, but on others I just pulled them out of my a#@$.

Rob: Thanks for the photos of the tail lights. Know the ones I made weren't correct for the truck, but will hunt around and find some after the show later this month.

Thanks again!
David

Hi,

Been taking the C8 around to some of the local Texas MV events this spring.

Have received a very positive response about the truck. Most folks here have never seen, or even heard of, a WW2 Canadian Military Pattern truck....now they have.

Going to hit a lot more of the local vintage car shows and try to educate some of them with my limited knowlege on the subject! ....might even win a shiney plastic trophy or two in the process.

Thanks, David
