That's nice work too.
Well as long as you had it all planned. I'd hate to get a good job done on the mechanicals and be left without a body.
One further problem - what's that cabover down the side in one shot? It looks like it should be a GMC or the like, but I don't recognise the type or the headlight position - got a good image of it? Gordon

Fantastic transformation......
....but.....but...... I thought you were working on a cab 13.......
did you get a whole cab 12 body from Elliott....... Boy that generates a whole bunch of questions..... and hopefully more pictures.... did you use a later 13 frame and swap the cab 12..... ?? What kind of problems did you run into with the floor plate of the cab 12 and fitting the levers...... Oh .... by the way... when you have a nice sunnt day and take out the COE inside the lean to..... can we have some pictures....pleeeeze! and its provenance... looks unusual. Bob

Walde has a cab 13
No, the CGT cab 12 is not mine, it belongs to 15th field, just another west coast FAT. Mine is cab 13!
I was just making a point the rear end configuration of both CGT's is almost identical. Also a shot of 15th fields, limber and 25 pounder a couple years ago in a very wet Remembrance day parade. I rebuilt my booster from 2 parts boosters , not sure if it works right, it kills the engine when I press the brake pedal, probably due to a massive vacuum leak. I also used a 235 instead of the 216.

GMC is "Old Pokey"
Its a 1941 GMC wireless, a Western Command members vehicle, I don't have a lot of pictures of it right now, just a distant shot at last years Arlington air show. Also a shot of my CGT cab 13 rear body after I stripped it of the rusty bits, its much further along now.
