Default Rob, if you need another project....

If you want to restore the shelter (weren't most of these house bodies on the dual wheeled version of the chassis?) I have a copy of the CV-47 parts book for the body that says it was for mounting on the M207 CDN chassis. In general, this body looks to be more solidly built than the 2K1 body used on the C15A wire5. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, it is mounted on a chassis rated for over 3 times the load (or 6 times if you use the highway rating instead of the cross country rating).

Default Cutting 10" band out of that would be fun

I looked at one of these cargo bodies to see if it was practical to narrow it to fit on CMP. Given the gauge of the steel it would cut like butter with a plasma torch. But some of these were insulated with a paper type material that burns really good.

Cheers Phil
