Well it probably wasn't far off new in age anyway.

Looks like an 88mm round may have found it.

Thanks Dusonn,

Really looks like a great movie. The F60L must indeed be the one from Rokycany, as some of the scenes even seem to have been filmed in the museum; I recognize the Hind chopper at the museum gate. Also the Bedford MWD fitted with a closed OX/OY closed cab must be the one from Rokycany, as well as the Cab13 F60L, which was probably the one formerly painted in RAF blue.

Great work....and great pictures!

Keith, From what I have heard the Cab 12 still has it's original rear body and canvas. I actually measured this truck for a scale model about a year ago. The guys at the Rokycany museum were kind enough to drive both the Ford cab12 as well as the cab13 in the sun for us. Both trucks are also on the forum somewhere, in their former colour schemes.

It that case it could still have it´s orginal tyres. If not, someone in the Czech republic is making great looking tyres for CMPs!!!
