New Brunswick FGT cab 11
This was just sent to me by a chap named Eric who has just acquired it.
I don't have any details other than he's looking for some headlights and the square V8 badge. Funny he hasn't mentioned the rear body yet(!) Is anyone familiar with this truck?

hi keith
New Brunswick is a relatively small place by comparison to Oz, but no, this truck is a new one to me. i remember hearing a story of a fellow, near the miramichi river, who operated some sort of military museum, who had an old gun tractor but i never persued it any further. other than that, no other tractors were known to me. hope "eric" gets onboard here....the more cmp nuts down here, the better!!! cheers!! mike |

Eric mentioned that was the one you were talking about. Just goes to show it's worth chasing up rumours eh?
Did you also notice the Chev rear axle in the first of this batch? Judging by the Landy in bits in the background Eric is a sick puppy like the rest of us.

Bonjour!
Nice to hear from you. We are 75 miles due north of Cherbourg, and seven miles south of Canada. Yes, there is a village called Canada near us!

Plate on dash
I haven't seen this one before - the square one in place of the front axle engage warning.
"First switch notch indicated by upper nameplate" Did all Ford cab 11s use pull switches instead of toggles found in cab 12s?

Keith of the two New Zealand Cab 11s' that I know of one had toggle switches the other had pull knobs as shown. Perhaps the one with the toggle switches had a replacement dash fitted?

This was due to production problems for the axles in the Ford plant at the time I believe.

The part no for the original dash badge was 01A-16606-A. I don't know what the difference between the -A and -C badges may be?

Axles
Chevrolet CMPs had conventional "banjo type" differentials so-called because they were accessible from the front with an oval cover plate that reminds of the banjo instrument. These were produced by The McKinnon Industries Limited in St. Catherines, Ontario in a factory announced April 1932. The differential was a fully floating hypoid design.
The Fords had a Timken-type differential, as it was either produced by or copied from, a Timken Axle Corporation, Detroit (Timken-Detroit) design. Tinken-Detroit also supplied axles for US-built GMC, Chevrolet and Oldsmobile trucks. This design split vertically hence "split-type" axle, and the differential was a fully floating spiral design. However, some 4 x 4 Fords used Chevrolet front and rear axles, as you can see from the photograph, although the 4 x 2 Chevrolets and Fords used a Reverse Elliott I-Beam [possibly standard Chevrolet or Ford design], with a fully floating hypoid rear axle (banjo) and fully floating spiral rear axle (split-type) respectively. In addition, 47 1941 Model Ford F.15A 4 x 4 trucks had a GM banjo-type rear axle and Ford split-type front unit. Ford used Rzeppa design steering Universal Joints and axle shafts and these were interchangeable with the Bendix-Weiss versions uded on Chevrolets, but in 1940 it was agreed that right-and left-assemblies of the same type should be fitted rather than left and right of each design. |
