just trying to find a little history behind the old girl but cannot find any markings of any kind to give me a hint
bar -there are stencil marks in the front air grills .on one side has german cross and the other what looks to be an hourglass
does anyone know what these may indicate ?

Good photo
 

Good photo, graphically displaying the optical superiority of the #12 cab design.
No need to mention ergonomics...

does anyone recognise these symbols ?
 

drivers side vent

recognise ?
 

passenger vent

Re: does anyone recognise these symbols ?
 

Looks like one of WW German symbols . As used on German Naval Ensin. But may have many other meanings as well as it was also used

What I found of interest was that the vent covering was screen and round as used on Chevys while the grill looks to be the woven wire grill as used on Fords. Another case of mix and match parts. Any thoughs.

Markings on air vents
 

Hi Guys:

My bet would be- teenager with black felt marker pen who got interrupted before he could complete the iron cross on the other side. I seriously doubt they are military markings.

Cheers! Mike

Chev chassis numbers
 

Sorry Andrew, Chev Blitz trucks don't have a chassis number stamped anywhere to the best of my knowledge.
Cheers
Rod

Cab 13 Chevs
 

Australian built Chev cab 13s have the chassis number stamped on the vertical face of the left chassis rail usually between the spring hangars.

Here's an example stamped above a hangar:

Re: 12 Cab dash question

Pete

thanks
 

thanks pete
just what i was after :cheers:

latest in the collection
 

c60s
one i picked up at clearing sale on the weekend :)

Looks good
 

Any data plate, chassis number, ARN?

Looks like it has a winch, but those wheels point to an ex-tipper.

Many of our ex- mid wheelbase Chevs were tippers, CGT No6 or ambulances.

another angle
 

just another photo of the latest

back end
 

one very solid bar welded into the back !

winch mounts

Re: winch mounts
 

That looks pretty right for a winch setup :)
