I have been wondering what sort of body/tray to fit to the 1945 C60L.I have found 2 Australian drop side GMH steel bodies locally which would do the job,I have also found a Canadian steel body in poor but restorable condition,it has a tag at the rear with 42 1 5F2 340 stamped into it ,the body was made by W.D. Beath and Son Toronto.Does any one know what a 5F2 body is used for?
I have been studying Keith Webbs oldcmp.net site in detail and now know that the late cab with the round hatch is made in Canada.Is it possible that these late trucks were diverted cargo similar to the Studebakers that came here after VE day?
Cheers Ken
