Default Home at last

Finally the export documents cleared and I could collect my newly acquired Chevrolet cab 12 GT.
It is fitted with a post war chevrolet engine, ist running and driving nicely but no brakes (there is nothing inside the front drums...)

Definately! lovely project Niels. Even though part of the rear has been cut, the remaining portion seems to be pretty straight.

Default Ford FGT Parts Manual

Niels,

I was fortunate to get my hands on a FGT-01 Ford Illustrated Spare Parts List manual for my Cab 12 Ford FGT. It has many expanded parts drawings and references both the Ford and Chev versions of the FGT's. If you need higher resolution pictures or more information, let me know via PM or by email.
Good luck with your restoration!
Regards, Richard

Thank you very much guys, Even though it looks a bit rough it drives really well, the engine runs smoothly with good oil pressure, but it dos not charge.
Richard I will be interested in any pictures or drawings of the rear body and crew compartment and all other chevrolet parts drawings.

Do any one know where to get wheel and master cylinder seal kits for it or part numbers of those ?

She's a beauty, Niels! Sounds like a great buy

I'm not at home with Chevrolets, but for brake part numbers try searching the thread Modern part numbers for CMPs. IIRC, the brakes are identical to Ford CMPs, except for the master brake cylinder.

HTH,
Hanno
