crop spraying tender
 
Came across this pic of a C60L in use as a crop spraying tender in Holland, looks like this was a long time ago:

Note the other Chev and the Bedford as well:

trailer
 
Could the trailer be an ex bomer wing trailer too? After the war small tear drop trailers were made from wing sections of disposed of planes. YOu can find really simple plans for a tear drop trailer all over the internet.

Nope, in Holland we build caravans from new, all we do with old aircraft is turn them into garden sheds...this Stirling was in use until a few years ago...
