Informations on Chevrolet 15 CWT needed.
Hi there,
New on the forum, I wonder if somebody could be of help for a french guy who is planning the building of a Chevy 15 CWT plastic kit? My father used to drive this type of truck with the french army in Indochina, during the 1946-1948 years, for gun towage. I am looking after informations about the aspect of the body and cab floor, regarding the GS 15 CWTs with all steel body from the 2C1 type. Was this body floor made of slick metal or of corrugated metal (may be one photo)? Otherwise, I would like to know all the measurements of the side panels of the 2C1 body. Not only overall length and highness, but also interlapse between stiffeners, length, highness and thickness of these stiffeners. Same inquiry about the upper and lower tube framing of the body sides. Of course, photos would be useful. Don't shoot me for so many questions!  ... and for my not good enough english speaking. Regards,

The researched measurements are those for the body sidewalls as seen when following this link (right side on the pic) : http://bcoy1cpb.pacdat.net/CMP_C15_b...ILL_at_CWM.jpg
And if you know a web link where I could find photos (for the texture appearance) and dimensions of the C15/C15A radiator, t'would be great!

Not sure if this is what you are after but if it is it appears to me to have a floor the same as the cab floor.

Hi Cliff,
Thanks for replying. I'm unsure your photo depicts a CMP 2C1 type body floor but yes, the floor appears to be made of corrugated anti-slipping steel.

(1) Mr. Parabellum, do you have a name? We pride ourselves on being rather friendly with each other here, borne of trust and long association. We'd appreciate knowing how to address you!
(2) Everybody -- I know that there's more than a few of you out there who have 2C1 bodies on your vehicles... could one of you help Mr. P out here?
