2013 at the Hammond Barn

[Bob Carriere]

We will have a series of close up pictures of CMP like features..... when weather permits.

But it sits on 16 in. rims.......Western frame has been sandblasted and painted chassis black. Front foremost crossmember that supports the rad and the rear engine crossmember looks identical to a CMP....... rear spring hangers also look identical..... frame sit straigth and not pitted..... and front horn of frame have insert cast iron parts similar to a C8

Time will tell if that frame is identical to the 1940 1 ton truck in the back field.

Engine is a stock rebuilt 235, rebuilt in Texas and imported to Montreal, invoice was provided for the engine...... never runned.... now sits on an engine stand.....turns freely...looks very good.....temporarily dressed with left over oil pan. valve cover, and side cover from a 261 engine that was fried. Full gasket set was included and assorted 216 parts he had left over from the original block. All in all not a bad deal

The drive was long, can't figure out the fascination that Montrealers have for huge pot holes and traffic jams......very greatful for the companionship and assistance of my two compadres !!!!!!
