Pete,

Thanks for the photo and list of tools!

As a matter of interest, Colin has a picture of the tools on his CMP webpage as well.

Now, who has a complete set of tools for his CMP?!?

Regards,
Hanno

I am hoping to access a copy of the tools - pics and list. I have the tool box, but specific tools from the right period are needed. If anyone can help, as the links above no-longer work
Cheers

George,

I can't help with the list, but these photos have been gathering dust on my computer for quite a while. Apologies, but I can't remember where I nicked the black & white pictures from.

There is also THIS THREAD. Can always add to the information and examples there.

I too have been collecting the necessary tools for my F60S LAAT. Spanners and other hand tools are not very difficult to find at autojumbles but the part numbers can be confusing as a number of different spanners have the same Ford part number.
I am lucky enough to have the correct tool box as my Father picked it up in Egypt during the war.

Questions:
1. where is the jack stowed in the F60S?

2. where is the tool box stowed? Behind the passenger's seat are four tapped holes in the floor board that are spaced tantalisingly correctly for the fitment of a frame to hold the box. Would this be correct?

Kind regards
Alastair
F60S
