The M152 CDN Panel Truck is a Canadian only adaptation of the M43 Ambulance, with a single rear door instead of the double doors used on the M43, along with four windows along the top edge of the body sides, covered with heavy protective screen. It also is equipped with a 251 engine instead of the 230, though it has all the military engine parts of the 230.
Records show the M152 CDN was made in 1954 & 1955, with some prototypes made as early as 1952.
