The tale of a C60S
 
5 Attachment(s)
Once upon a time, Johan Dieffenbach - a renowned military vehicle collector from Belgium - used a Chevrolet C60S chassis to create a Signals Line Construction truck. The conversion was most likely carried out at least 20 years ago.

When Mr Dieffenbach passed away, his collection was sold off and the C60S ended up with another Belgian collector.

Sometime after 2014, the Signals body was transferred back into the Chevrolet 1.5-ton chassis/cab it came off originally. The Chevrolet was parted out, and the Cab 13 was sold to another collector.

Ca. 2015, the Cab 13 was bought by a man who wanted to restore a Frankentruck. Recently, he lost his storage and was forced to put his project up for sale.

Sadly, ALL was sold to a scrapman as he was the highest bidder :doh:

I hope the scrapman is wise enough to not put the cab in the shredder, so maybe one day it will pop up again?
