How To: C15a Wire-3 restoration

[Jordan Baker]

Thanks Robert. I’m having fun “tricking out” this truck. There is so much stuff one can add and research about on these trucks.

After some good corespondence with David Dunlop I made up the canvas speaking tube. It’s made from double layered canvas with a double layered canvas ends. I then put Lift The Dot fasteners on the cab end. The metal frame for the cab opening has the corresponding studs. I’m quite happy with the sewing machine. It sewed through the 6 layers without any issues. I feel what we came up with is a very good representation of the original.
