    Paul Thanks for your thoughts. Given your advise and the combination of available time and finance, I'm leaning towards the trying to kill the rust or at least slowing it right down option. I hadn't heard of Vactan or Fertan. I shall look into them. Glad you like the truck and the little video Kind regards Ian

    Guys Removed the cargo body sides for the first time on my CCKW :nut:. As feared this revealed some corrosion on the cargo body uprights that has been quietly festering for many years by the looks of it :-( With holes of various sizes, backwards into the cargo body, and down to the wheels, what's the best sort of repair do here ? Patch welds, or is there is specific box section repair kit around ? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Kind regards to all Ian

    Stumbled across this high quality colour slideshow on the web. Spot the tantalising photo of the CCKW 352/353. Just a shame more of the vehicle isn’t shown... http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/08/world-war-ii-the-american-home-front-in-color/100122/Kind regards to allVulture

    Guys (please forgive the indulgence, but) At the weekend my 9 year son and I were looking at videos of CCKWs on U-Tube, when, yes you guessed it... "Dad, why don't we make a video of our truck and put it on U-Tube?" So on a windy, but sunny Sunday here in the UK, I we took some footage which I stitched together (using Windows Moviemaker) and uploaded last night. Kind regards to all Ian (aka Vulture)
