Gooday again
Thankyou all for the great response,I do owe you an apology for putting 1941 instead of 1940 in the thread title I noticed it as soon as I pushed the post button.The cab is a 11cab and I found the chassis number on the left chassis rail between the step brackets.I will try and post some photos but it won't be untill the weekend.It is interesting that when I bought my 1941 C60L in 1980 that I asked the local library if they could get me a book on blitz trucks[how was I to know that Australians are the only ones that call them blitzes]but to the libraries credit they hunted down a book on Opel blitzes from the German army,I was so disapointed now I can sit in my own home and at the push of a button I can have good reliable information from people as keen as I am on CMPs.Cletrac do you think mine should have the Chevrolet axles also off topic a bit I have a M2 high speed tractor ex RAAF with Serial12JA000 but there is no date of delivery on it.Anyway I only have about another 100 questions to go.
Cheers Ken

Default GM axle

I would have thought the answer would be yes if it was a F15A and no for a F15 - the shortage was mainly with driven front axles.
