Identification please for my new CMP

[cletrac (RIP)]

The Ford script, dash, and rectangular roof hatch all indicate a 1943 vehicle.

1942 too. What is odd is the 'FORD" stampings on the front cowl under the headlamps. That is a later war feature. I'd comment on the floor checker plate pattern (which is the latter style) but that vs. the checker plus dot pattern seems to be hit an miss.

The Ford script combined with the other early features is why I said 1943.

Hello Vincent,

Check http://www.canadian-register.co.uk/database.html for a listing of surviving Ford CMPs to compare the Chassis No's.

Hope this helps,

Based on the data available, chassis no. 149 587 fits in between:

Model / Year / Chassis No.
F15A / Feb 19 - 1943 / 117810
F15A / Aug-43 / 151801

So July/Aug 1943 is a good estimate.

Could you please take a picture of where you found the number? It's a new location to me.

Thanks,
Hanno
