Thoughts on your questions
Yes, cut out and cover top of the dog house for the deep water fording kit.
Unpainted area on door, lubrication chart location. Spring and mounting point on the back of the cab is spring tension for the roof cover pull cords so that it could be kept just tight enough to open or close the canvas cover. Funny cut mark on step, I have heard this explained as being a way to use up scrap floor plate from cutting the cabs floor. There is even an explanation for where the two sections come from the scrap of cutting the floor. Now I'll go watch your first drive video. Cheers Phil Just watch that video and the video in the cab when starting, who is in the cab with you they sound excited that it started.

Thank you phil for your help!
I hunderstand now for the canvas roof  Funny for the step boards, all the steel peaces used to be used! certainly due to the steel missing at the end of the war. Does an picture of the lub chart exist? I have this marks on the two doors was this plate each side?. What do you think about the APT type marqued on is type plate on the dash board? My wife is filming me, and my eight years old daugter is in the cab with me , and we were all happy that the new "baby" starts!  Best regards Sylvain

Hello Harle' and welcome to the forum. I'm not a CMP owner myself but have an interest in WW2 Chevs.
What a wonderfully intact vehicle. There can't be many CMPs around in that sort of condition. I notice that the rear driveshaft has one hell of a bend in it. Forklift damage perhaps? David

CMPs become part of the family
Quote:
My daughter went with me to pick up my first CMP a HUP when she was 4 years old she is now 41 and her children are now riding in the HUP. At 4 years old she rode with me in cab of the flat bed tow truck, and was fascinated with the fact that the truck driver had filled the ash tray with with lollipops. It was a several hour trip over and back and she enjoyed the whole thing. Has your family named the truck yet? My HUP got named BEAST because when my wife saw her first picture she said "what a beast" and the name stuck. So when I got the second one the C60S it just had to be named BEAUTY. As to whats on the charts there is an older MLU thread that has been posted that I will try and find that thread as I think it has the text and pictures. This fits in with with Grant's comment on posting pictures directly to MLU instead of links to outside photo sites, finds like yours are few and far between and by posting the pictures directly to MLU there is a better chance that they will not be lost in the long run. Cheers Phil

The U brackets I think you are talking about are to release the latch on hook, they are often bent or even broken off from hitting trailer connection when backing up. Yours look to be the correct shape. Cheers Phil
