Transplants & Quandries

Hi Keefy - the answer is yes. The first two images are the F15A and it has a brass tag on the passengers side rear scripted 1203 2CI 5319. It is missing the tailgate but I also picked up the spare wheel carrier seen in the rear.

The second body is on the F15 but I have to dig this truck out to see if there is an ID tag.

I did not want to restore both and will need to move one on to fund the other. The money tree here is quite sick and I know Ada will say how many B@#$%Y trucks do you want. Fair enough.

Quoting Hanno:

Hi Bob, since you have both of them, you could check the inner mudguards. I believe they are different as the non-driven front axle has a larger steering angle?

That is the case with the Chevrolet version but not the Ford.

Lucky you, Bob - two 2C1 bodies on Ford blitzes.

Hi Keefy - so it is good that I have two CI bodies? The trouble is that I don't want two and given some responses I will probably restore the F15. That will leave the F15A with the CI body without the tailgate. Perhaps someone might make me an offer. However I have a contact who has just replicated a tailgate and who knows my mate Colin could even do one off a template.

Really any CMP rear bodies are good to have!

And our mate Colin could no doubt replicate about 20 on a even on a bad day with one hand tied behind his back and his eyes closed.

Thanks, that's good to know.
