There was a thread about what looked like an abandoned "F22" type FGT in Canada a month or so ago.

Hi All

Not on Facebook, those links don't seem to work, but keep the info coming, Ross can not believe the response. One question that comes up is where do you find the dimensions for fabricating the rear body? Doesn't seem likely there will be a project around with that intact...

Hmm, while it may have an FGT chassis, the F22 is in practical sense a 15-cwt truck and not an FGT....

Hanno, we may not know the purpose of the vehicle, but it is an FGT. The plates clearly say FGT and C291Q.

Either way, I'd be remiss if I didn't remind folks that there's a rare vehicle there, thats a bit if a mystery and is the only one we've found in Canada.

Thanks Hanno, much appreciated

John i dont think you will have any trouble with getting the dimensions for building the body for one of these. we are plenty of CGt owners here that can help you

The chassis is FGT, but it isn't fitted with a FAT body and winch, but with a regular Cab 13 and a 15-cwt GS box. Hence my remark above.

Agree, we should always point out surviving CMPs to other fellow collectors. Personally I am not convinced the one spotted in Canada is an F22. It could well be a bitsa, although I would like to be proved wrong.

So the vehicle in the pictures is a FAT? but differs from other CMP FAT's significantly, can I get the CMP newbies guide to the field artillery tractor?

John,

Here are some pics - contact Les through his member profile page (see link below).

HTH,
