Default Pics......

Will do some digging Keith and post pictures..... from what I could see they were built for Australia but never made it......

I have one of those frames at the barn.....a guy in Montreal has one fully restored.... a few in the Bellville area...... a few in Orangeville ... a few in Sault Ste Marie...
... but all are from the same Aussie contract and built within a few eeks of one another in and around August / September 1945 and obviously never shipped........ and with and w/o roof hatches and early and late instruments clusters......

In the AEDB engineering manuals there are records of such 16 inch CMP trucks being built as troup carriers and for ambulances....all long wheel base.....

Will put a package together an post for you.....
