You never know where your next CMP part will show up!

I frequent our local self help/discount store here in our small community and occasionaly come across a rare broad C arrow marked bit of cutlery or shoe brush. Today there was a special gem that everone seem to pass by, a Ford 1941 marked ration box that fits onto the back right corner of a carrier MK 1. Price $1.00.. Very cool, and it has been passed on to our Prairie Command president, who is piecing together a MK1 from one of our digs. It was a good day in spite of the snow. Anyone else with a new find? Cheers Rob

on the deck at 4 A.M. on my way to the golf course. A friend dropped off a Bolingbroke instrument panel with guages slightly worse for wear, but certainly restorable. Cool! Although not a CMP piece, RCAF is dear to my heart! Once a pilot, a bad one at that, always a love of the air! Any other finds out there guys? Cheers Rob

Here's the CWH Bolly as it was in Feb 2004. I wonder whether any progress has been made?

I really liked the sign.

Talking about parts turning up, Euan has some good finds in various trash and treasure sales - at the Bendigo Swap Meet there was a NOS Ford grille which although the seller didn't know the make (he thought it was from some farm implement) he got so pissed off at Euan asking "how much for the barbeque grill" each time we passed he was almost throwing rocks at us by the end of the day.
