This C15A Cab 12 used to be part of the Budge Collection; but where is it now?

I wonder if this is one of those "TRUCK, 15-CWT, LW (V)" as listed in Canada's Fighting Vehicles Europe 193-45?

Yes, the C15 cab 12, is still there. We have had a discussion about this nice (ex Budge) CMP truck a couple of years ago. David Fletcher and I had a short conversation about Bart Vanderveen during one of my visit's to England, I showed him also a picture of the "mistery" body of the yellow C15 cab12. He gave me the right tip about the body. The nice body is the body of a post war 2 wh. British trailer ! OK it's look good but....also a nice trip & story.

Mvg. Dirk
