Default CMP Basic Body 1B1

Guys,

I spotted this on a recent outing. It is a Cab11 F-15A with what looks to be a 1B1 body on it? I didn't bring my tape measure but it would appear to be correct? Let me know what you think.
Cheers, Richard

Rich,

The first "1" in 1B1 means the body is meant for an 8cwt; "2" denotes a 15cwt body. I think the body in your picture is a 2B1 with the top halves of the sides missing, tailgate missing and the wheelhouses altered.

Default 2 B or not 2 B

I believe Alex is correct with the "2".

I have the same on cab 11 and cab 12.

The fender well modification is typical...... they removed the inside fender well to make more room for cargo.

Of the 3 boxes I have only one still has the original rear fender well.
