Sorry Gordon
Forgot to say thank you for posting the pictures of the interior. Wonderful job you have done to the old girl. Looking forward to more as you go along. What this about a tractor project Bob??? With an unfinished Cab 11??

Nothing new on the progress of the truck and not much prospect of any more soon. I spent two weeks in Manitoba helping renovating another site members basement, but I digress.
Thank you to Rob Love for facilitating the purchase of 11:00 x 20 tires for the Signals C60, couldn't have found a better deal any where else. He also took Neil and I into to the famous scrap yard, where I got few nice bits and bobs which will come in very handy. Rob, the tow bar parts came apart very easily and will be an easy fix. Thank you to Perry Kitson for some fittings he machined and metal sheared. Thank you the Tim Gillies and Albert Baines for procuring and cutting the replacement metal channel that holds the panels in place. You guys have sourced and made things that I would have had great difficulty in finding. As has been mentioned before, this site is one of the best, one of the friendliest and most helpful on the net. Gord |

Such a nice a day I thought I should take the van body off the chassis. I hope it goes back on as nicely.

Remarkable work, I must say. |

I thought I had slowed down, I haven't done anything with it since July. Now I can start taking the cab apart and cleaning up the chassis. Not having, what I call, a 'real job' gives me a lot more free time than most people. |

I have taken the cab apart and have found some curious bits, deficiencies and what needs repairing.
First, there is a fitting bolted to the interior of the cab on the drivers side. Does any one recognize what it is for? The second and third picture are from the frame rail under the passenger side door. There was nothing that the pipe fastened to and nothing to suggest where it should connect. Any suggestions as to its purpose? I also found that the carriers for the front wheel engage operator is missing, also missing on my other 60 cwt parts chassis. Is there a reason why these parts get removed? |

The tacelmite button fitting would suggest that the pipe would be an external grease point for an otherwise hard to get to lubrication point. Could be for the release bearing or maybe the clutch linkage? Have a look at the motor positioning to see what t likely hooks up to.
