Default info required on F15A 13 Cab windshield

Can anyone ident if this windshield assembly is correct for the production model year, looks like 1942, with square roof hatch, or is this a modification, ( by pervious owner or military mod ) wondering if this is a cold weather mod, non opening outward windows ?

Certainly a modification in post-military use.

All CMPs had opening frames.

It looks remarkably like a Chev.

No matter whether Ford or Chev, I haven't seen that type of windshield before - not saying it couldn't be an officially sanctioned mod, just not seen either as production or modification.

Default Windshield

It is interesting and something I would not change until I found out for sure that it wasn't military. The Canadian military was still using some CMPs into the early 1960s so you never know, you might have something unique to the vehicle range.

Front shock absorber in the picture is Ford.

What is the pin assembly dead centre front bumper all about?

Looks like something to lock a tow ring into to push a trailer around in front of you, or a tow bar for an aircraft, perhaps.
