Hi All

In another thread - HUPs IN STRANGE PLACES http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...?t=7277&page=4

Bob Carriere just posted the question
Lift rings.....??????
Did they have lift rings on 45 HUPS......?

Well it got me thinking, over time on MLU we have discussed when such and such changes were made. Does anybody have this as a data base or list?

If not can we collect the data and put it into a simple form?

Here is the information I'd like to see, please add what other basic information I've missed.

1. Date of Change
2. Models - example Pattern 11,12,13, C60S, F60L, CGT etc
3. Nature of change - example change from Pattern 12 to Patter 13 or no wheel lift flanges to having lift flanges
4. Manufacture(s) involved - Ford Chevy etc
5. Reason for change (if known)
6. Source of information, historical documents, date of manuals or parts lists, observation, etc

I know many of these points have been discussed over the long history of MLU but putting this information together in a single data base/list would be helpful to new members of the CMP collecting obsession as well to us confirm long time collectors/nuts.

If somebody already has this list compiled how about sharing it. If not lets get started.

Cheers Phil
