Great thread and film links.
Can't imagine why anyone would think early CMP 's would not be used in NW Europe. As has been mentioned they would only be a few years old and many from England would have seen fairly gentle use. British forces in Korea in 1950s were still using early WW2 stuff like open cab 3ton 6x4s. The antique look of which amazed the Americans. Craig Last edited by chalky; 22-10-21 at 10:11.

My 12 CGT has a rebuild plate from Oct 44 for a full rebuild, so that would have been fresh and ready for a trip through NWE
