Serial number ?
Interesting truck. My 1940 C-15 Has a serial number of 0842109189, about eight thousand higher than yours. The interesting thing is my engine number,2789696 is very close to your number of 2789612. I wish my truck was in as good a condition as your truck is.

For the owner of the cab 11.......
.... you might want to have a look at the one for sale in Sussex NB..... as a model to help in the re-assembly........
http://saintjohn.kijiji.ca/c-cars-ve...AdIdZ136982175 Guy Take it from me.... you cannot rebuild a CMP with only one truck..... .... you will need parts and above all a truck to crawl under to see how the parts fit together........ manuals will also be of great assistance.... so will some valium or on the coast theuse Keith's...... ....but nothing compares to having a spare truck to look at....practice on... and salvage that wierd part the teenagers at Canadian Tire can't find in the computer. If I can be of any assistance just drop a line. Boob

Numbers
Thank you for the data guys! The two numbers are the lowest and highest known C15 numbers (to me) to date! If the engine is original, then the number is on a stamped pad on the block, and near the block casting number is a casting date code: LETTER (A to L) for Month (Jan to dec), DIGIT(S) (1 to 31) then 0 for 1940, 1 for 1941 etc. I estimate that it's a 1940 build and that's as far as I can go at present. Oh, a 1940 MODEL of course...the first British orders were all 1941 Models!

C-15
Hi Bob,
It's not much to look at but it is a Chev, much easier in my opinion to do the mechanical and engine. Last edited by Paul Singleton; 12-01-20 at 16:32.

what box are you think of installing....
Nice find Paul.....
what kind of box are you contemplating..... a 2B1 or an earlier wooden one..? We have two rusted but complete 2B1 in Ottawa..... typically too rusted to be repaired.... but are seriously contemplating using them as patterns for building at least one..... found a willing fabricator for the heavy and large bending that can handle both the overall isze of the head panel and tailgate. One outstanding issue will be to reproduce the little brass male, capstan shaped, studs that are affixed with 3 rivets to the side.... intended to hold the leather straps for the canvas cover on earlier models. Once we get one box done, we will have all the dimensions duly recorded. Keep us posted of your progress. Bob

Engine number for David Hayward
Hello David,
I just checked the data plate on my truck and the engine number matches the registration. This would indicate that the engine number of 2789696 is correct for my truck. I wonder why the serial numbers would be so far apart on two trucks, yet the engine numbers are so close? Paul Singleton
