Default Roofless CMPs

Even though CMP trucks were built with a fixed roof (albeit bolted on), every now and then one can seen them in use roofless (or topless, whatever rocks your boat).

Here are some examples:

Two different early CMP's can clearly be seen in the movie, a cab 11 Ford F15A and a Cab 12 Chevrolet C15A. Both show the same modification to the roof....or rather the removal of the steel roof in favor of a canvas cover. I am guessing the roofs were removed in warm Italy and after the unit moved to Holland, the weather required a new cover???
