Just a quick update on my research thus far. I have contacted a few museums with not much luck so far but I did receive a little information from the RAF Museum.
Dear Mr Yeo, Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, outside of the entry in the Data Book of RAF Vehicles, we have virtually no information of the CO11DF. I think the it all hinges on who designed the body, there may be some references amongst the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust records held at Gaydon. I know they have the minutes and some correspondence for Mulliner, these may reveal where the design originated from which will help you track down any plans.. Sorry we could not have been of more help. Sincerely Bryan Legate Assistant Curator Archive & Library Royal Air Force Museum London

13" Rims
As most people know the 13" rims and tires for the 8cwt are hard to find. The tires that are available tend to be agricultural tire and not road legal. My issue is the rims on my truck have had the "Farmer" modification where the rims have been cut and butchered into 16" rims.
On previous thread http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...d.php?p=212345 Super Dave mentioned mating the 13" rims with standard 15" trailer rims, so far everything is lining up making a much stronger and safer rim then what I have now.

New Tires
I've been tinkering away and have almost got my F8 sitting on new rubber, I have just one more rim to weld together. Once she is able to roll I will get a few more pictures of it inside and out

1. outside for the before pictures 2. Damage from the prairie winds 3. Test fit the hood from Bob Carrie 4. Roof off, my girlfriends son Ethan is my helper this weekend 5. Stash of parts that I brought home from Ontario
