David,

Many years ago, there was an article or letter in the MVT club magazine, "Windscreen", about C15TA converted to dumptrucks, working in the West Country. I cannot lay my hands on it at present, but seem to remember the front end, ie cab and bonnet, was retained.

Regarding the Morris Commercial, sounds like a C8 Anti Tank portee, the FWD is obviously four wheel drive which ties in. As for the number "1961", well who knows. Some of these odd references may originate from the Ministry release notes which had to be produced to the Licencing Office. The writers were probably not mv enthusiasts with an eye for details as we are now!

Richard
