George that would have been the same contract as mine.. Alas dont have the serial or date, but I think it was May. Did yours have an original winch? Mine did. This was very rare on a 60, and I was told it was used to hoist the radar masts into place.
I remember in my search for parts, I came across a guy with about 40 crates of orig wheel scotches. Wanted to know if i would buy them all...damned if i can remember at all where or who it was... wonder what happened to them.
I bought a crate (two) for my truck-
Actually, I not seem to recall that the top bows had collars and pins set so the bows were only about maybe 8in (?) and then if you wanted to lower the top for reduced height roughly equivalent to cab height, you pulled the pins out (attached by small linked chain to the collars, and the bows slid down to the stops in the side channels.
I see the Stevensville (ont) group is selling a 1944 C60...looks like a very good basis for a resto.
