1st time out
Today, the C15 was shown for the first time in ages at a local Airshow, here in Oxfordshire. Everyone I spoke to could not believe the condition of her, all credit due to her last owner. Driving wise, she is a joy to drive, light on the steering, a decent set of brakes, and pulls with no hesitation, quite happy to cruise along at 40 MPH. Attached are a few pictures of her earlier today, enjoy.

Hi Rick & Jill,
Best regards to you both, Cracking truck to drive, so different to the C30, mind you, it's a lot lighter. The hunt for polsten parts still continues, although I now have a de-activated barrel, tool roll, 4 snail drums, loading rachets, cleaning kit, so it's coming together bit by bit. Regards Keith

Hi Keith,
I know Hanno pointed out the CDN 20mm mounting was the 2L1 body, but do you have the extract from the CDN bodybook giving the detailed description and side drawing of that body? They look very similar to your truck's bodywork so may be of help? If you don't have those pages, I can scan and send. PM me your email address if interested. I agree with you about the 4x2's performance. Had an F15 GS many years ago. Went like a train. Reasonable steering, good staying power with the rebuilt V8 and a higher speed diff centre (crown wheel & pinion from a White M3A1 scout car). Mike

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the offer of the rear body drawings, I already have them, what I am after is a set of drawings / dimensions for the polsten set up. Regards Keith

As Keith continues to complete his AA truck, here is a picture I found on the internet recently.
Note the credit, but I thought it was good to share here, as it shows how original this C15 really is. Enjoy, Hanno 37684863544_cce9e8199d_k.jpg
