Welcome to the forum Jon
Congratulations on the c15a You are right with the chev c15a 1941 cab 12 It does look to be in good order and dosen't appear to be missing too much  Good price too They don't usually have chassis numbers and the main identification plates are located on the drivers side panel of the engine cover(3 piece engine cover) Engine number is located on the drivers side of the motor ,usually just behind the distributor on a flat section,sometimes in front of dizzy or behind valve side plate Do you intend on an original restoration ? Post a few pictures of the internal cab and dash array Good luck with it

Welcome to the CMP world
Jonny
Looks like a good find, the body is in very good condition compared to some that have been found and restored. If you are new to MLU I think you are going to find a wealth of information and people willing to help. Good to see another Pattern 12 being restored.

Nice
hi Jonny
The most important thing is: you have found the MLU forum. The collective knowledge here will have your truck running again in no time . That is a very nice find... amazing what is still sitting around the bush waiting to be discovered. Please realize it is a long road , the restoration game .. you need to be silly or something.. be patient and ask many questions .. we all start out with little idea. Mike

The more you learn about them ,the more you realise there is to learn(me anyway)  There is a suprising amount of variations throughout the models and then you get field modifications on top of that  I have found the majority of members of this forum are extremely helpful and an absolute wealth of knowledge

Engine #
What's the engine number on the block please? I can't find a casting # 3860439 in any database! It's a 1950-on style number.

 Actually, it's a shame that you didn't find a Ford, as going by your other trucks, there's a lot you could do with a Flathead in a CMP. ** Purists hear sound of fingernails on blackboard**

Hi Jon,
Welcome. MLU-ers are scattered all over the world. I have just added the third continent to this thread. Often you ask a question just before going to bed at your end of the world and when you get up you have reactions from other parts of the world where day is night, or night is day.... Anyway good to see another MLU-er in the 20's! I also belong to that group for another half a year or so and also bought my first CMP earlier this year, a Chevrolet C8 FFW 1940. Have fun here! Alex p.s. kinda like the other projects as well. I am restoring two Fiat 500's, one Abarth 695 SS and one Giannini 500 TV. Well nevermind.....both small Fiats the size of the tires on your black truck....
