Default 15 cwt body

Hi all,
For our latest restoration project i'm looking to trade a 15 cwt composite body for an all steel version. We're restoring a D15 with a 2H1 composite body, unfortunatly the D15 only used the all steel version body.
body is in decent shape, will fit any Chevrolet canada or Ford canada 15cwt.
also willing to buy any if not interested in trading for the 2h1 body.
regards,
Niek

Default 15 cwt 2C1 GS body

Hi all,

After several months of looking for a correct body for my Dodge D15, i've decided it would be a better choice to make a new one since i cannot find one.
Does anyone happen to have the technical drawings and measurements to construct a 2C1 15cwt all welded body?
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Niek

Default Possible drawing source

This thread http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...hlight=autocad is now 4 years old and the last comment is that there was difficulty contacting the creator of the drawings. The creator of the drawings doesn't seem to have posted to MLU for several years so I have no idea if the drawings are still available.

Default Trying to make contact

I have put in a call to the number I have for Ted. I'll also talk to the people up Sarnia way that know him. Hopefully one way or another we can get in touch with him and see if the drawings are available.

Thank you JP, I had also considered getting a set of the drawings but without an immediate need I didn't push very hard once I saw there had been difficulty contacting Ted.

My memory of the original posting was for paper output from AutoCAD. I've no idea (assuming the paper version is still available) whether Ted is interested in selling AutoCAD files and then how far into the CAD/CAM realm they can be taken.

Default Drawings are Available

I just spoke with Ted and he told me to pass on that his drawings are available. I will pass his number on by PM to those that have expressed an interest. Good luck.

Niek,

Have you asked the (Belgian) owner of the FGT attached if he still has the steel 15cwt body?

Hi Niek,

No sadly I don't have contact details and I don't think he is a member here. You could try to contact him through his Youtube channel:

Stijn van Haverbeke from Ichtegem if I am correct. Good luck!

Alex
