CMPs in Norway. . .

A noninternet-involved collector here in Canada has a very complete CMP wrecker truck that came out of Norway. The story goes that the ferry ship changed destinations and arrived in the US rather than Canada. So the driver/escort needed "cash" to make his way home. The owner sent him the money and he drove the truck a thousand miles versus a few dozen miles.

I think this photo on HMVF is not very recent, but it's a nice C60L sitting in a scrap yard....

Lovely project!

Unfortunatelly this vehicle will not be saved any more. The back body was used as a donor to another C60 project. The rest was disassembled and stored, however the frame alongside with axles were stolen from a private property by junk metall collectors and probably ended up in a crapyard for some lousy beer cash What a pitty, but at least the cab and other small parts can be used to keep other projects alive.

Ah yes, I now see it's the one Erik had for sale. Possibly the picture above was taken at his place?

Definately a pity, but good to hear that at least some parts of the truck will be used again.
