Folks
Herewith some piccies of this vehicle - a Ford as per its front axle cup. I was not able to get it lifted of the ground. Its engine cover has no data plates on it nor in the cabin or on/near the dashboard. Could not even see a plate for high/low range instructions, etc. As you will see the cab and tray are quite rusty; not sure if they can be restored. If another cab was fitted, would it be noticeable if it was from another Ford (a 4X4, as per one or more of my piccies.). Or even ......... a Chev? I ask this is because there is another cab available. (more piccies to follow) In anticipation, thanks. Bruce |

Some more piccies, this time a Ford 4X4.
The rear wheel with the attached gear sprocket is on the 4X2. |

The F15 is an Australian cab with a Canadian body which although rusty has it's wheel arch boxes intact. These were often cut off to give more clear space.

Nice find, most good bits repairable, the 4x2 is a good start point very straight forward resto no fiddly transfer case, parts easy to get. best of luck.

Rear original trays are very hard to get though so if it is repairable you are better to keep what you have even though it is an Aussie cab and Canadian rear tray you have pictured as Keith said.

![]() Where I mentioned it has an Australian cab there are also quite a few differences between that and the Canadian one but either will of course fit. That one looks like it has an unhealthy band of rust around the rear cab join.
