David your German is OK

i can English read good and wright not so good.

[Marco C.]

when it is this Modell is it in the cabin open as in a FAT

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

Yes, that's a Chevrolet C8A HUP. There were different bodies BUT they may have been the last General Motors of Canada CMP chassis built and were at least amongst the last.

Those experts who know more than me will tell you but I think that they were open behind the driver...the bodies being built by GM of Canada in Oshawa on the chassis. There was also a few Ford F8A chassis, possibly for India only but the only known photograph of a chassis shows a Number/Type 12 cab and chassis behind. This may have been a sole unit.

[Marco C.]

Wow thats it what im searching

I think that they were open behind the driver

im not comming in a normal Cab 13 my Legs are too long

so I must search a FAT or this one.


Thank you very very much David

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

I owned a Mercedes-Benz 190E 1992 Model from new (actually three, two for business partners but one for me) and a BMW 525i for my business partner. I have long legs and could not get my legs under the steering wheel! Solution: purchase leather-trimmed smaller sports steering wheel costing £250 [car £20,000] just to get my legs under the wheel to drive. The BMW presented no problems.

[Marco C.]

Oh yes i think so :idea:

i have now an MB 220 C there i have no problems . With my Legs


and so is it with the old Military Vehicles there for smal boys with short Legs

[Marco C.]

Hello every Body i have now sit in a HUP and it is Beautifull i can sit in there with no Problems

I Love CMP's

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

Marco, as far as I know the HUP has a partial division behind the driver's seat. The HUW has a full division wall.

Keep on looking for a FAT....
