Default CMP Trailer?

Guys,

I found this out in the back forty at another location. It's obviously not a CMP but I don't see a Trailer Forum on MLU. It has an aluminum body, shovel attachment bracket on the front, wooden spoked wheels and what looks like a large spare tire storage area on the side. Is this a HU style body retrofitted to go on a trailer or is it just an old camping/hunt camp trailer?

Regards, Richard

Default Wire 5 Box pictures

Harry,

Could you post some pictures of what this "box" looks like on your C15A? I will see if I can take some pictures of the inside it for you and will post.

Thanks, Richard

Default C15A Radio Body

These bodies have been discussed before but doing a search on C15A and Radio Body I'm not finding the posts which would be most helpful. Does anybody remember the tread? Bob you have posted pictures I think.

Here is a link to some pictures of the body type taken at the CMP 84 Symposium http://www.canadianmilitarypattern.com/CMP84.htm look at pictures 26, 27, 35, 109, 231 and 232.

Plus information in Bill Gregg's and Bart Vanderveen's books.

If the box found is in good condition it would make a great unit for a C15A chassis

Cheers Phil

Default C15A Radio Body confirmed

Cliff, Phil & Harry,

Thank you very much for filling in the blanks. It seems coincidental that I am in possession of a C15A cab and chassis and that I was looking for something to put on the back. The radio body should set it up nicely. I will keep you guys posted and thanks again for digging up the information.

Happy New Year and cheers! - Richard
