Terry is the cargo box original ? Or is this off something else >?

This looks like an F60 series truck, are those 20 " tires and rims ?

The rear bumpers look odd also ?

It is the cargo box off an M135 2.5 ton truck. Gordon Yeo also has one on his C15A. I saw it last year on his truck, and it really looks the part, especially when one removes the diagonal bars.

HI Hanno,
I think you win look like the one on the Deuce and if you look on the back no place for the spear tire

Hello

I have seen the wheels with tires which dimension seems to be 1050 X 16
So I think that your truck is a FORD CANADA F22.
These trucks , builded at the end of the war , were intended to be used as artillery tractor. They used some parts of FORD CANADA F60L. The radiator should be oversized and a little portion of sphere was often over the hood.
I join a pic of F22 seen in NORMANDY il 1994 with a 1C2 body.

Morning all



Well from what I can gather the truck is a F15A with F60 20" wheels and 9:00x20 tires, the box is off a CDN M135
and has been cut down by 4' in the middle and welded back together, I think it really plays the part and was really well done, the rear bumperetts are also M135 but again for now kinda look the part.

I am also looking for a few spare 20" wheels like these If anyone close to me or in Canada has any Id like to hear from you as I will need a spare or two.

Gordons Id love to see some pics of your trucks also pls PM Me or post it here for all to see.

I wish all the plates were still on the truck but seems someone else needed them worse than me

Glad you are all enjoying it, I welcome any help or pics to make this easier especially from Ford owners especially if there is any other places to look for stamped # etc to identify its year etc better.

have fun !
