Cab 12 with 1B1
I just came upon this picture of my uncle Cyril Pope during training with CABTC#2 in Ottawa in March 1942. The Cab 12 8 cwt has door number 42-1-22. It's the only picture I've seen of a 1B1 body with the canvas in place. I can't see anything to suggest Ford or Chev. Was there any difference in the door handles?

David ,
It appears to be a Ford, going by the rear axle half-shafts . Mike

Just like my Ford
David Pope (and Paul Singleton)
Yes, that F8 is just like the one that Paul sold me. Any chance of getting a good jpg copy by e-mail? Still working on my resto - a lot of delays getting the engine going. Hope to get that fixed shortly and my doors and cab base back from Barry. Then it will be work on the box and even trying to restore the original canvas. I notice that "your" truck has the letter s on the door. Mine has TS in red paint on the window canvas - nay idea what that means?

I went to the rod and custom car show in Saskatoon on the weekend and was surprised to see this C8 on display. The old guy who owned it said his dad bought it new from army surplus just after the war and put a 150 bushel grain box on it plus a set of overload springs. The present owner built the box that's on it. He must have looked at a 1B1 then made it something like it. He also said he got five 13 inch tires out of California from a surplus place about 10 years ago but couldn't remember any details.
David Moore, I tried to send you that picture but your email refused it for some reason.

The tyres may be the Israeli made ALLIANCE brand ..they have that wavy tread pattern.

I was looking through the Google Life magazine images and came across these Morris 8 cwt pix. I threw the third one in just because!

here's an F8....
Found this photo today on an old CD. Don't think it had been posted here yet.
No idea now where it originally came from. Thanks, David

F8?
If it's an F8 then it could be an 8-cwt G/S under Demand S/M 2030 assembled in Dagenham under Contract 294/V/4699, and then presumably shipped out to the Mid-East.

It's a 1941 cab 12 F8 wireless with a 1A2 body. You can see the chore horse generator just behind the cab. That pic answers all the questions about whether the Cab 12s used the 1A2 body or not.

That marking on the side door is very interesting. Were there other pictures on the CD and was it commercially available? Andrew

Hi Andrew,
The CD was one of my own. I generally save all the interesting military vehicle photos I find on the net for future reference, so I'm sure it just came from a website. Thanks, David Last edited by David DeWeese; 13-09-11 at 02:23. Reason: spelling

I would be hard put to say where many of my pictures came from originally too. Andrew

It's about half way down the page. Thanks, David
