I have no idea what the serial number is since the data plates are gone as well as a few inspection covers for the dog house and the bonnet. The 13 inch rims have been welded into 16 inch rims, the roof has been pulled back and torn from the prairie winds. Engine, transmission and steering box are seized. I have a lot of work ahead of me.

I am having difficulty up loading pictures will add more when I can. The previous owner told me his uncle bought this our of Westbourne Manitoba. He use to play it in as a child and tried many years to buy the truck from his uncle, his intent was to restore the vehicle once he did acquire it from his uncle, but at age 71 he has come to realize he has to many projects and not enough money or time to get around to it

Check on the siderail of the frame under the left door. The Cab 11s had the serial number in that area.

So is the whole 13" rim there, or just one side with the other side cut flat and attached to the 16" rim?

BKT from India makes a fairly decent looking version of the 13" tire in their sandstar pattern. The lesser ply tires are rated to 40 mph, but they are not DOT rated, so technically not legal for road use in North America.

BKT has a Cdn distributor, and Tirecraft in Winnipeg carries the brand. I placed a call to them a few weeks ago, but never got a call back. I need to pursue this avenue, as the museum is in need of 8 at this time. Add 4 for Niel and 4 for Rob, and the order is starting to become reasonable.
