Default Model A UPS C-Cab

Does anyone have any information on the C-Cab delivery body that was used on UPS Model A trucks. I heard there was an article in the Restorer magazine a while back but I can't find it. I would like to someday build one and could any information or plans for it. Thanks, Ken

Thanks for the information on the Restorer's article. Does anyone know any contact information for the person that owns a Model A C-cab delivery? I would like to see if plans are available. Thanks, Ken

UPS actually owns a C-Cab Model A amongst their small, vintage vehicle fleet. My dad worked for UPS for years and they would bring these out to employee events, etc. I believe they also showed the Model A C-Cab at the Ford Centennial in 2003. From memory, they have a small museum somewhere, maybe their headquarters. It's been years since I have seen it and I do not know if it is an original truck or one they had made to resemble an original.
