Jaap Rietveld (also see top of this thread) is trying to save them from the hot wrench, contact him him for details.

Recently, Jaap told me these two CMPs were scrapped by the scrapyard which owned them. Can't save 'em all, I guess

The truck is owned by Andy Beevers and this was one of its first outings. Sign writing is due soon. A really unique and superb restoration!

Well done Andy!

[Marc van Aalderen]

Nice to see it's been kept in it's commercial post-war state. Nice job indeed!!

odd that he has both styles of trailer hitch mounts mounted on the same truck. I need a set like the upper ones that the Hitch spring is not mounted on.

[Grant Bowker]

I fully agree that having both types of bracket on one truck is unusual. The "in frame" mounts for the hitch spring appear to be placed over the nuts securing the "below frame" mounts as there is an unusual gap between frame and "in frame" brackets. Also, there don't seem to be many nuts inside the "in frame" brackets securing them in place.
On CMPs, I expect to see below frame mounts on trucks where the in frame interfere with other equipment such as access ladder for the C15A Wire5, distribution taps on the water truck.
Or perhaps someone did this to provide extra/double reinforcement to the holes in the rear of the frame..... I have seen those holes damaged when people tried to use a tow cable in an un-reinforced hole.

The ad in Dutch notes he is offering an extra set of lowered hitch mounts. Obviously the truck originally had the hitch mounts in the chassis, the lowered mounts are only shown to see if they fit.

Looks nice in the photo. And I really like the price!
