CMP 2K1 Van body
 

I have seen pictures of different lay outs for wireless set ups but not 2K1.
What was the seating arrangements? Was CMP seats used? and if so were they raised. Maximum seats are just 2.
Truck colour dirty Brown not green.

I would also like to know more about the layout. I have not been able to find the manual for the 2K1 body but wouldn't expect it to have much on layout if it is like most of the other body manuals. There might be more in the wireless installation manuals. I believe the seats were CMP, I suspect slightly raised but this isn't based on any good period source, in other words if you find an original source that doesn't agree with me, take its advice over mine.

One of my references (official SWW publication) states; This is a Wireless House Type body constructed of aluminum sheets on a steel frame. The inside is lined with 1/4" plywood, and the floor covered with 1/8" of Dektread. There are two sliding windows on each side and one in the rear door, all equipped with screens and blackout curtains. Sliding steps are provided at the rear door. The roof is fitted with aerial supports, and access to same is provided by a tubular steel ladder at rear of body on left hand side. A communication hatch is installed between body and cab. Ventilation is supplied through three ventilators in the roof, two of the static type and one power driven. A generator compartment is provided in the right rear corner to accommodate two chore horse generating sets. Ventilation for this generator compartment is supplied by two sliding doors, one at right rear corner, and the other at rear of body, right hand side. An operator's table is fitted at the front of body, as well as stowage space for storage batteries. Miscellaneous other items of equipment are also provided, including two bucket type seats, writing desk, luggage carrier, etc. A penthouse is supplied with this body. This body replaces the 3J1. A tool box is installed on each side of the body, at the front. A Jerrican carrier is mounted on each side of the body, at the rear. A one gallon oil can carrier, is mounted on the left rear corner, forward of the Jerrican carrier. Provision is made in the outside left wall for a spare tire carrier. This body is designed for mounting on a 4x4-101".
Another reference states "two folding seats". As neither uses the term DND seats I don't think that CMP seats were used.

Here's some stuff from Military Vehicle Profiles.

And from the 34 ft antenna manual.

CMP 2K1 Van body
 

My set up will look good to the public, however, I hope one day to change from a ford to a chev. My floor is Battleship Lino over plywood this will stay.
There are flimseys ar the back,no Jerry cans. The ws19 table is original but the slide out for writing is gone may replace? I am grateful for the help and much
needed info. I was told after I relined the inside that the colour should be white ( much help from a MLUer back east) It was lined with mahogany door skins. One day maybe a picture of the seats will show up. A penthouse supplied with body and luggage rack no room for either unless I am unable to think outside the box (pun intended). Is penthouse a term for something else? :support
When good pictures are taken, I will post
I Thank each and everyone if you for the help provided :support

The penthouse is a leanto canvas awning making more office space as shown in the first photo attached to a HUP.

Second photo is a drawing I found in my files on the wireless body interior

Third photo is the interior of a British Office body similar in looks and design to the wireless body and is for interest only.

I have no idea where I originally got these photos from. :thup:

2K1 van seats
 

Thanks for the response, :thup2:
The 3rd picture from cleatrac, the fine print mentions CMP seats.
the 2nd picture from cliff is a rendition done by Bruce Parker and physically that is the only practical placement of the seats. (better than the piano stool of my picture of a radio van CWM at Vimy house) The height using a original CMP
seat was raised about 2 1/2 inches, maximum for the original table.
Now that the van except ceiling is full of kit it is hard to display, it is very dark.
Must change the walls to white.
I put a 12v light in the vent over the c5 charger but what was used originally?
I renewed my Ham license to keep things legal when I got the WS19.
Kids love the key on the knee. so do I
Still working on putting up some pictures. :support
