Thanks David. I will be working on that this summer.
It will make a nice addition. How about the tool boxes , Steel or wooden ?

Bonjour Robert
Here is a photo I have that may help or hinder you. I don't know the source of the photo unfortunately. It may be one of mine or one from the net. Barry |

Robert.
The two storage bins forward of the rear wheels are steel, Chevrolet pattern. Externally, the Ford and Chevrolet steel bins look identical: piano hinged cover that is held in place with a large, flat steel bar mounted midway horizontally. The inside face of the bar is covered with a thick canvas strip, held in place with a series of copper split rivets running along the midpoint of the steel bar. The canvas strip serves two purposes: snugging the bin lid securely closed and preventing any rattles. Although the Ford and Chevrolet bins look identical externally, the front face of the inside middle shelf differs between the two. The Ford has a straight face running the full length along the shelf. The Chevrolet has a shallow curved cutout approximately 8 inches long at the mid point of the shelf. The two bins are interchangeable from either side of the Wireless Box, but a rectangular adapter plate must be moved from the top end of one side of the box, to the other side, if the storage box is mounted on different sides of the Wireless Box.

Friends,
I was away for work for a while. I worked lately on some of the finer details of the restoration. Here you have the canvas tunnel allowing the radio operator to talk to the driver up front from inside the box when traveling.

Recently i got to work in the modern equivalent of my Wire -5 truck.
It is about the same size but the technology is slightly different from the 19 sets. There are a lot more antennae, computers, wires , dishes and coffee cup holders ...
