Many times, the obsolete Ford parts you seek for a cmp will be elusive as part numbers from military manuals etc do not always match up. Remember, when the CMP line of vehicles were produced, manufacturers simply used what was already commercially available at the time; they did not re-invent the wheel especially when it came to components such as engine, transmissions and driveline items.
One odd item that I can think of is the Ford emblem which is found on the cab 11 and 12 CMP. it is actually a trunk emblem from an early 30's Ford coupe which was carried over to the CMP. Same goes for the emblem found on the dash of these same trucks- a commercial pattern chromed emblem painted over...
