Here is an update on this truck. It was purchased by the Shilo museum and picked up in early December 2012 by a DND training run and brought back to Shilo. Since it has shown up here, we have removed the civilian flatdeck on it, fixed a severe air leak, rebuilt the fuel pump, and presently have the fuel tank off for cleaning and repair. Truck runs, but needs a tune up. It is planned to get a total restoration in the next few years.
The plan is to remove a couple of poorly added splices in the frame, adjust the frame to the correct length, and then install General Crerar's caravan body onto this truck from the open cab truck that it is currently on. The open cab truck will be returned back to it's original wrecker configuration.
