Aussie Studebaker pics
 
Came across these pics through another site. 4 pages of pics, many in colour showing a range of Aussie AFVs and sofskins from the 1950's and 1960's.
Anybody know the chap?

This one is interesting - see the 2 gall tin and one of Geoff's little slithering friends here.

Broken..Steering shaft...Got a bit exciting !
After that one broke while driving with a truck full of troops,we sure checked the rest to make sure they were ok..These left-hand drive trucks were great to drive,slow but good off-road.Even better when we put chains on the tyres. 10 wheels

Nice link ryan,
thanks for posting. Even a Champ, looks like its fitted for stretchers, but could not work out how to get the picture big enough to see it properly (Thats a big hint for Keith.....). Interested to see what trailer its towing as well.
Be a terrific slide show if it was presented by the photographer.

You can make them bigger but the trade-off is they become fuzzier due to pixelation. Easiest thing is to get in touch with the author.

The trailer towed by the Stude looks like an Australian Corio.
