In the background
Just came across this pic with a 15 cwt CMP in the background (missing a mudguard) and wondered what similar pics you people may have come across where the CMP was incidental to the photograph.
"Sharpend" the dog. Source

Sure do!
Nice images. I like the one where they've taken the V8 out to show how superior it is.

And in that pic with the Ford V8 on the ground (Les's 1st pic), Wot Jamaica the vehicle behind that? Does the windscreen appear vertical to you? Do the door windows appear to be of an unusual pattern? Is it a CMP... (Bedford, innit?)?

Maybe two D15's ?
Quote:
Note that the furthest one has a had cab with a passengers side rectangular hatch - much more likely to be a RHD D15 than any other Dodge methinks. Gordon

Check out the paint job on the C15a in the picture with the Fw190. Really nice foliage pattern in accordance with MTP 46. Goes to show that the order of no repainting until needed was followed.

Sign
You couldn't get away with a sign like that in today's politically correct environment, could you.
Looks like an ambulance.
