Indian Pattern CMPs

Nice find indeed! Chassis/ cowls and chassis/ cabs shipped over from Canada, after assembly they were fitted with locally made Indian Pattern bodies and canopies at "A Defense Plant In India", most likely Bombay. I like to see how they are driven off for body fitting, possibly only a crate for the driver to sit on.

Some more interesting footage to be seen if you scroll down for "similar videos". I wonder where the people from pond5/ RetrofootageExclusives got this footage?
