Hi Clive

Are you looking for information or detail? The 700dpi size of MLU may not reprint well, and do you want the vehicle information to match the data plate?

In either case here are two the first being a 1945 HUP the 2nd a 1942 C60S

Cheers Phil

Hi Phil,
Thnx for sending these along. I am actually loking for hi-res images (300DPI) suitable for press. You are right that the MLU limit works against this so I included my personal e-mail addy.
What you sent is exactly what I am looking for. Many know that I am working on a CMP book (Drive to Victory) http://www.servicepub.com/cmp%20book2.htm this has reached 350 pages and will be illustrated with over 600 photos. The data plate images will be used in a chapter on vehicle/body/cab/chassis codes.
Cheers,
Clive

Hi Clive

Didn't find any e-mail address accept the "sales" one. I have Hi-Res of both data plates if you would like me to send them. Also do you want pictures of the trucks as well. The HUP is in original while the C60S has what should be called "locally built cargo tray" and "locally added radio box"

Cheers Phil

I have a set attached to my Dump Truck. I don't guarantee that all parts of the truck match the plates but here's hope that since the plates are still on a dump truck that they might be an original matching set. If I don't send you photos soon, please remind me. Have you considered searching for people on the forum who've been saying they have plates and contacting them to ask for photos?
