A good day at the flea market today!

Rob,
That is the plan this spring is to get out there and find the tools that are hidden away. I was told that the engine starting crank handle assembly for the Ford CMP is a two part item.The first being the bent handle part and the straight rod that fits into the engine crank shaft lock. The two parts connect to each other.
I have also just figured out what other tools I am looking for and will be on the hunt now! I need for my Ford CMP the following items;
-CO1Q-17182,DREADNAUGHT open end wrench 3/8'' x 7/16''
-C39Q-17006,Box end wrench,1/2'' x 9/16''
-C39Q-17007,Box end wrench,5/8'' x 3/4''
-C39Q-17009,Box end wrench,15/16'' x 1''
-CO1Q-17033,Wrench,front hub retaining nut
-C11Q-17038(Ford 3 ton parts list),(C39Q-17038 on Ian's parts list)Ford engine starter crank handle assembly
I just came across an interesting part number in the Ford 3 ton parts list,it's for the doohickey that holds the wrenches together,CLIP,WRENCH CO1Q-17166. They gave it it's own part number!
Two more items that are in the parts list are books.One is listed as;
-CO1Q-17067,BOOK,LOG and;
-SE-93-A,INSTRUCTION BOOK
There is a photo of the log book in the back of CANADA'S FIGHTING VEHICLES EUROPE 1943-45,page 202,lists it as ARMY BOOK 412. Has anybody ever seen one of these books before? This is the only photo I have come across showing what it looks like. The other book listed as INSTRUCTION BOOK. What type of instruction book would I need for my Ford 3 ton CMP? I have 4 different types in my collection. Would any of these be the proper instruction book? There are both books displayed on the CMP tool kit board photo but I suspect the tools are for a Chevy CMP as the instruction book is Chevy and apparently the engine starter crank handle is one piece for CHEVY and Ford is two piece as in page 203 of CANADA'S FIGHTING VEHICLES where they have a list of TYPICAL ''B'' VEHICLE BASIC KIT LIST and in it lists the Handle,Ford,1st type and Extension,Ford,1st type? Thoughts on this? I already have a driver's handbook for FORD 3 ton 4x4 and AMBULANCE but is missing page 21 & 22 so would eventually like to find a complete one.
