Rick,
Surely the absence of helper springs and associated brackets on the rear chassis, point towards this being an F30 as opposed to an F60S ?. As for the transfer case, I thought all 30 cwt (Chev & Ford) had 2 speed transfer cases, I'll go and check some of my early manuals, just to be sure, to be sure !. Still a real nice find, keep the pictures coming Rick Regards Keith P.S. Dan's fine, his Phillips bicycle always has a lot of interest at the shows, and he is only too willing to tell people about it. I think he has plans on mounting a machine gun on another he/we are rebuilding !

Keith O,
This one has helper springs, BUT they are of a smaller size on the F30S than the ones on my F60L Cab12. The width is the same but instead of 3/8" thick they are 1/4" thick. The chassis rails are also smaller in the web 2 3/4"X7" on the F30S and 3"X7" on the F60L. I went to my library and guess what I found. Didn't know that I had it until I looked. This book:- FORD Illustrated Army parts Catalogue 1940 - 1941 The helper springs are listed separetly but have the same numbers for both the F30S and the F60L. There is no brake booster either. Regards Rick

good find Rick ... you are now a member of the Cab 11 club
that would make 4 cab 11 fords that I have heard of not counting the one Bob knows of in SA and 3 chevs. Rusty has a cab13 ford that has the tow rings on the chassie but on closer look the cab has been put onto a 12 cab chassie or maybe it was a11cab also the front panels of yours look to be fairly straight, it looks like the front air vents are moulded in the panel , on cab 12s the louvers are a seperate piece that is bolted on and also ford doors didn't have a liner on the inside like the chev ones from what I have found Max

Max, I'm glad about that as my right hand door has its inner skin and original handles and the left has the holes where the inner skin was screwed on.
Rick.
