			Interesting... I don't think the cluster is a CMP one, but the front shell is the rarer '-FORD-' only script version from around 1943 as opposed to the no name and '-FORD CANADA-' seen from 1944 on.

			Hi Keefy - I believe it is an early CMP from the Cab 12 era.  A variant of this is in the Bren Gun Carrier albeit without the fuel gauge and no quadrants on the speedometer. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Tony - it looks like a good one to restore. Don't pay too much as I restore these for $300 or scratch build for $400. Also research as to whether your Jailbar has these brown faced instruments or the later silver faced instruments. Bob

			I have contacted the seller to ascertain the coding on the rear of the speedometer to properly date this cluster.  I have also advised him this is a Ford dash and not also a Chevrolet as in his description.  I wish people would do the research before they list things.

	![]() Missing horn, drivers door and seat but always shedded according to the blurb. Popular wheelbase too. It does say it's fitted with a pto, but doesn't mention whether that's on the gearbox or if a 2 speed transfer case has been fitted. Looks like a Sunshine roof sheeted over with the hood bow cut out.

			Looks more like the horn wire which goes down the steering column, and I don't even think it's a blitz one, although it may fit.

			So who won the bumper? I was watching the countdown (but not bidding) and watched the snipes coming thick and fast in the last minute! 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			I thought it would go for about $120 so not far out at $123.05. Good buy at that price.
