Hi Hanno,

Thanks for the advice....I will let those on this side of the pond get first crack at it. If no luck then yes I will post on other sites such as Steel Soldiers and Milweb.

Cheers

Just in case anybody got the wrong idea, it wasn't me that said I'd take it and then backed out.

re: Ford 15 cwt.
I have been watching these posts with interest, but feel that it is time to set the record straight on why this sale collapsed.
I was fully prepared to purchase this truck based on the initial photo's displayed and information provided by the seller. I requested detailed images and I quickly identified one area of major concern to me. These concerns were communicated to the seller spanning several emails. The seller rejected these concerns and suggested perhaps I should re-think my decision as there are others waiting to make offers.
I am sure that this truck will find a good home.

I've seen and driven this truck (plus own and have been restoring CMP's for over 30 years). No areas of major concern I'm aware of beyond a great runner with as much original stuff as you are likely to spend a lifetime looking for.

OK, OK. There is one BIG flaw.

The chevron tires (yes...NEW...CHEVRON...TIRES!!) are backwards and should be 'v' down. At least according to the manual. You could either live with that or spend 20 minutes changing them around if you felt the need.

$8G for a beautifuly restored 13 cab is a very good investment...

I have chevron tyres fitted to my Fordson WOT. I put them on backwards, against the 'direction of rotation' arrow as I found in a manual where it was advised that the performance and wear was found to be improved that way. I wish I could find the manual again as I am forever explaining to others why they are on backwards. Anyone else read that anywhere?
