Default CAB 13 Chassis

Good day, looking for some information...I have a 1944 Cab13 C15A It is in very good condition considering age and sitting outside for the last 30 years. I need to get an inspection done to get it licensed in British Columbia. The only thing I need for that is one more original wheel rim or does anyone know what other options I have for a 8 stud 10&3/4 rims that will fit on the truck?

I'm not in BC and shipping would be crazy but I suggest that if you are changing 1 rim that you consider changing all 4 so the inspector doesn't "one of these things is not like the other". In other words, don't make it easy for them to find fault.
Also, I don't think the CMP bolt pattern was common in North America - even at that time. If it was common, I suspect we would see more CMPs with commercial pattern rims.

I’ll be headed up your way to pick up a CMP in a couple of weeks. I could bring you a 16 inch rim and tire. My cell 604-813-6703. Text me first

My truck has a lever for high/low range on the transfer case that I don’t see on some others. Is this not standard for these trucks?

Default Pictures would help......

If your truck is a short wheel base C15a ...someone may have transplanted a 2 speed transfer case.....nice to have if the conversion was done right.

good luck
