Moderator's note: thread split here and moved to Is the FAT a 60cwt or 15cwt truck?.

Some more pictures of CMPs captured in North Africa. First, an 8-cwt carrying a German machine-gun on a tripod:

Tony talked earlier of a single shot 37mm bofers.

Bill Murray kindly sent me a model of one pictured below in 1/35 scale. Not sure what it is like as I have not opened the box.

Cheers
Cliff

Quite an interesting image of a Ford cab 11 under temporary new management.

Here's another one, this time captured by the Italians and fitted with a 20-mm Breda AA gun, or so I read.

Another shot of a captured CMP in North Afrika, Kuno tipped me on this one being auctioned on eBay: Foto Engl. Beute Lkw Deutsche Kennung Afrika (Item number: 6156269054 )

...but it seems, the Germans catched another one of your trucks:

Another captured Ford/Chevrolet 15-cwt 4x2 truck with Cab 11 in North Africa.

Note it has an "Indian pattern" wooden cargo body, like the one in the previously posted picture.

Hi Hanno, This truck is a Ford F15 judging by the vent louvres beside the radiator and the narrow grille guard.

Cheers
Rod

Thanks Rod, I still have some trouble telling the early CMPs apart

Here is the one I used to own being towed behind my Jeep, John.

Any more pics of captured F15s out there. I recall seeing a cab13 one on here which I comented on but can't find it now. It was a DAK photo.

Last posting yesterday by Ryan in the "In the Background Thread". Rommel is in the foreground left of the picture.

Thanks Dave but it's not the one I was after. Sorry I should have said f15 pic. I'll keep looking. It was awhile ago.
