Early Pattern 11 Chev 4x2 ??

[Bob Carriere]

That is the one Paul......... there is no doubt in my mind that your turck was one of the few that got caugh in the production modification and what ever peices was available was used up....... this was not a Japanese HI-Quality assembly line......line was to be kept moving......

I have been searching my jumble of B&W pictures of that era....... I am sure it was posted way back when on MLU......

The picture I am looking for is of a production line Photoprapher was standing about 8 feet about the cab....passenger side and the picture shows the mixed up parts of....I believe it showed the top roof with a rectangular hatch, a cab 11 hood and a swing open windshield........ the picture was the basis of a discussion about what is a cab 11 VS a cab 12 and when did they change.

IMHO the changes occurred on Wednesday line one, Friday for line 3 and over the weekend for the other two lines...... I have registration tags for an Australian contract PE_175......C60L with small 16 inch rims and tyres and dated Aug and Sep 1944.....obviously never shipped from Canada and were sold surplus.....and they had a mix of civilian instrument clusters and some with rounds dials...... same contract a few days apart.....

I gave in... and purchased a light from Stefan of LWD....Xmas gift to self....
