Original Paint Clark

[welbike]

This Nice Clark CA-1 was in PA for some time owned by Frank Buck in Gettysburg, wonder who bought it? made a high price on ebay!

Note the instruments are not original! and the seat is a repro by Beechwood I believe.



















































These I forgot, the winch handle!!





Will post more pictures of other Clarks soon,

interesting how it sports the OLIVER tractor gauges, eh?

Original perhaps?

No, think aftermarket, see the Normandy museum Clark pictures for originals, just like in the manual.

Alex,
Great photos. Those will come in handy for all of our rebuilds. I was noticing the paint for the registration numbers. It appears to be the light Ford blue, or is it faded white? Hard for me to tell. I also like all of the details on the battery box, the lights and the rest.

THANKS!!!

Oz, it's blue, you can order it from a paint guy in the US:http://www.tm9ordnance.com/products.asp

But then this blue was maybe different as for Airborne markings??

Looks darker anyway,

Alex,
Thanks for confirming that. I will see the numbers on the one in OK soon. It is supposed to be original paint, but I am unsure if it is white or light blue. I hope there are original unit numbers on there also.
