Dean, If your anyplace near it, please take a few photos of the c15a wire 5 tag, I am restoring a 44 wire 5 and am short on the tag, hoping to make one on a lazer ingraver if i can get a good clear photo.

Same dates
The extra wire 5 I had and Pat Papworths C15A Wire 5 were both built on the same date, June 13th if i remember, My current C15A Wire % was built on July 20th. That's 3 trucks still in Canada built on the same day.

Hello, I have sent 8 photos to Ross, you will hate the way the set decs "dressed" the truck...but all those containers on the rear deck will come off.
I will be interested in everyones comments when the see the condition of the cab and the rest. I know nothing about buying and selling Military Vehs..I just know this should be saved. To make it run the have to attach an external fuel tank...both original tanks are there with their caps...however when I took one of the caps off...it smelled like varnish..so I would guess they would need to be cleaned as well as the fuel lines replaced. Anyway...hope I can buy it at the end of the film..all depends on the price. Anyone have any idea of what something like this is worth? This is way out of my range of knowledge Thanks Dean
