CMP interior lamp
This lamp is installed in the cargo box with canvas roof, as well as in the latest design of artillery tractor 7B3 body also with canvas roof.
In a photo you can see a Chevrolet Laat also with this lamp. Is there a part number for this lamp? Chevrolet or Ford Design? Was it also used in the sheet metal cabins as a map illuminator?

What's with the second dashboard above the windshield? I've never seen that before and it raises a lot of questions.

Hi Bruce
This upper dashboard is an addition from the last owner (No Factory Part), since he prepared the truck to travel, and needed an rpm counter, oil temperature gauge, vacuum gauge, and voltimeter gauge .... Also add to steering column, a panel with directional ligth, hazzard, automatic and manual electric radiator fan.... the truck seems to be upgraded to run on Paris Dakar travel!

Never seen that before, I'd say it is a postwar/ civilian adaptation.

Late CMP mysteries....
That hat channel is very well done, it looks like a factory..

pictures attached are from Clive's Factory photos CD. I don't have my files at hand, but I think the lamp is listed in the C8 parts list. I will check. I don't think it's a specific Ford or Chev design, but more likely a lamp that was sourced somewhere else and used by both brands.

Thanks for the photos and Info Alex.
It seems that it is a lamp that was present in the CMP from the beginning..

Attached are two pictures from the C8 body parts list....sadly the part number isn't of much use (?)
the lamp is marked with part number "919".....no idea if this points to another publication or if there is a cross reference. Quote:
