Default CMP wrench

Would this wrench be correct for a CMP tool kit? I know it says made in USA but the part number is in my parts book as a spark plug and cylinder head nut wrench.

Default re: cmp wrench

whilst not professing to be an expert, I can tell you that I have 2 cmp wrenches in my collection, one is USA marked, the other made in Canada. They are both identical in nature, I believe that parts were sourced as needed during the war from both US and Canadian companies. It is quite possible that the US wrench was intended for use in the T16 carrier w/ it's flathead Ford engine. If anyone else has a different opinion, please feel free to educate me.

These are fairly common to find at antique shops and old car swap meets; commercial Ford vehicles used them as well. The Canada marked ones are not as common as the US marked ones but they are out there.
