Default How to reassemble a Ford F15

This is a fantastic find from Argentina, very kindly shared with us by Diego who is restoring a Ford CMP over there.
I'll post these in bits - he's still scanning and sending them.

Default Second page, AKA page 1 (the first was the cover)

It would be great to somewhere pull together the CMP library of this sort of thing, wouldn't it?

Could this be made into a PDF and posted as one piece?

Re. "Method of Pack MUP": does MUP stand for Multi Unit Packs?

We know SUP stands for Single Unit Packs - see http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...463#post111463

From the C60L assembly instructions you posted (Thank you),

"MUP -PACK

This type of Pack indicates one or more complete vehicles packed in any number of cases. In tis particular pack one complete Chassis and Cab is packed in one case, and two Bodies in one case with a consignment of three cases making up two complete vehicles."

Default Assembly Instructions F15

Hi Hanno,

Many thanks too!

Noticed on pg. 20 another variation of the speedometer cable routing and securing. Think I will go with this one showing it attached to the right rear intake manifold.
I just made a bracket same as the handbrake cable support at the rear springs. I was going to use it at the engine cover clip as per the F60-S Ford assembly manual photo but this seems a better way to go. Not a lot of slack in the 85" long cable so over the engine may be better than beside it.

Cheers,
