Windsor F15A recovery
After a lengthy and varied negotiation process another truck has fallen into the possession of the Ford guys down in Windsor. Attached are a few shots of the not-so-difficult recovery. No doubt Geoff Bottoms and I will be right at it in the very near future. We have a plan for the truck already but that would be giving too much away far to soon. More to follow.
Cheers from the home of the Ford CMP Mike Timoshyk

Plans for the new truck
You are going to mount the living quarters from the tow vehicle on the F15A?
Start offering battlefield tours in the "enhanced seting" body at the rear? Aren't you glad that it was a 101" w.b. and not anything longer for your trailer?

Another Ford CMP in Windsor
Mike,
Good to see that the city finally came to their senses regarding that truck. A few years ago they had given it to the Windsor Regiment but wouldn't give them ownership so they didn't work on it. The truck was used to water the flowers in the various hanging pots etc in downtown up into the 70s and aside from moving here and there hasn't been used since. Well done. J.P. Also from the home of the Ford CMP

With that tank on the back it was likely a rural fire truck at one time. I've got two that had vaguely similar tanks when I got them.
