Hi
It looks like a good project.
It is a Ford F15 4x2 not an F15A which is the 4x4 version
Good luck

The data plates on a Ford should be on the inside of the right hand door (this is mine):

Default Data plates

Hi Vincent

I can assist with new old stock data plates for Ford CMPs, the first, third and fourth in this picture are available.

You can see the publications plate is specific to your F15.

Please send me a pm if you are interested and I'll send you a price including postage.

Hello Vincent,

I do not know of drawings for top bows, someone will have to measure them for you.

The rear canvas cover can be bought from John & Mary Worthing, see their website http://www.canvasco.com/:

Thanks for help , from France
