Hi Haridimos,

Great find! It reminded me of the F15 I spotted on Crete some 13 years ago. Contrary to that one, which was modified and abused beyond hope, the C15 you found looks very much restorable. The sheet metal looks good, although a little bent here and there, a bonus is the cargo box is still there (albeit modified).

Main issue could be the drive line (engine, gearbox, axles). It seems it is all there, but I wonder how much (ab)use it has seen. If the 216 cu.in. engine turns out to have died, you could always think about fitting a 270 cu.in. engine out of a GMC CCKW 2.5 ton truck. The Greek Army used a lot of those, so a spare engine should be around someplace near you.

We are glad to help. Let us know if you get it and keep us posted!

Regards,
Hanno
