Hi Conn
I want to wish you good luck on finding a body, An original ww11 truck cargo body are very difficult to find and your looking for a tipper :shock: this is going to make your search alot harder, but not impossiable so don't give up . Tippers are more common accross the pond, anyway good luck with your search :)

Guys....Army Driver had a Tipper Body for Sale.

Check this previous thread:

As scarce as tippers are this looks like a real find....

Send him a PM to see if it is still available.

Is the date you have listed on your truck of Feb, 45 the DOD date on the data plate or the manufacture date? Just interested in late 45 trucks.
