Keith, did you notice the gear box cross member in photos 26 and 27.
You sure could look at these pictures for hours, thanks for posting them Clive.

Too right you could look at these for hours! Thank you, thank you thank you, Clive. If these pics are to be added to others and put on to a CD, I'd gladly pay for a copy!

Now, Max, if we are going to get into the nitpicking game, what do you make of the 101"wb vehicle in pics AT042-049? Is this a F15A with a winch, or a FGT chassis with lightweight running gear? (SIT DOWN, DAVID!!) It looks like the vehicle in AT001 and 002. Note that there is no auxillary spring on the rear suspension, light "375" steering box, 4 7/8 steering ends. Note, too, the Prolific GM hardware such as the early cast diffs, Delco shock absorbers and the fabricated (not cast) suspension bump stops. What came first the F15A or FGT? Here are features of both in one vehicle!

And what of the vehicle in AT 062 and 063? Has no-one spotted that the brake vacuum cylinder is on the LEFT side of the chassis and written across the back of the cab in AT062 is the word "Experimental"? Could this be a LHD CMP?
