Here is an extract from Norm Darwins book " History of GM in Aust "

Quote:

CMP vehicles
Engineering of CMP vehicles commenced at Woodville ( S Aust ) on September 1941 when the first parcel of data was received from the contractor , the UK Ministry of Supply , via GM Canada . The Blitz was produced in both Chev and Ford chassis with GMH only handling the GM chassis .

Of all the pictures I have seen in both of Norm's books on GMH I have only seen number 13 cabs . Looking at the production figures for Woodville military bodies , it appears production for CMP's started in 1942.
