How many different editions of the CCKW SUP & TUP assembly manuals were printed?
I have seen a SUP one sold on ebay a while ago - not sure of its date.
I have a copy of the March 1943 TUP for the 353 models - this only shows hard cab trucks.
Was there a later version for open cab vehicles - what dates??

Re: CCKW Assembly Manuals
Never seeing any assembly manuals (sadly) I would have to say there are at least 2.
One for the open cab/wood bed, the other for the steel.
Just a wag.
There are pics of the assembly line on the net.. France IIRC. They started with a bare frame and went from there.
One would also assume that the tanker/dumpers were either shipped complete or had their own manuals.
Also where would shop vans fit? Shipped assembled?

Re: CCKW Assembly Manuals
I got one off e-bay a few years back, it was very cheap, and if I remember right, no one bidded agaist me on it. It was listed as a WWII manual for GMC.
Most of my manuals and stuff are still backed away from my move here, when I find it I will post what CCKW it covered.

There are assembly manuals for Single unit package and Two unit package they show the open and clr.
The pics were valuable in my restoration for correct routing of the speedometer cable.
