Default Another cab.13 Ford FGT in Czech Republic

Hi all,
there's allready one thread about cab. 13 FGT in Czech Republic from my friend Dusonn - here:
http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=21046 . I hope to cooperate with him on renovation - that (as we all hope) comes soon.

My father has bought his one in late 70's, probbably in 1978 in scrapyard in Pilsen where it was lying on left side. He originally came to the scrapyard just to take the winch and compressor from the wreck, but when he realized that he does not have this model yet, he decided to put it back on wheels and take it home. Last 20 or 25 years is this FAT stored in our friend's place. So yeaterday I went there to take few photos of it. Here it is.

As well as Dusonn's one, this one belonged to Czechoslovakian Independent Armoured Brigade Group - so it's on of just 10-15 cars that served in this unit and is still here, in the Czech Republic. I have found the marking, but the number is not learly visible now - I have to try to uncover it carefully. There should be "74" - for Field Artillery Regt. I am not sure yet what the marking, that is visible on the left side means.

I hope you enjoy the pictures. They are not really good, the car is surrounded by other WWII trucks and parts.
