Default A lot of the bits ...

... are "the same but different"

I remember Geoff Hargreaves in Grassington found a complete one ( he has put on to its location by the famous Bill Huck of Ingleton ) It was relatively complete but did not have a bonnet / hood.

The hood looks identical to the WC one, but of course it is longer to cover the extra engine length, so Geoff had to end up making one. In common with a lot of Canadian tactical truck production they had flanges bolted to each wheel for lifting purposes.

I do remember that the body started out the same width as the US one, but was made narrower for later production to fit in better with the AirPorTable role

I wouldn't see much chance of finding an original engine for it tho'
