Aussie Gas-2
I was impressed by the data off the January 1942-build Gas-2! That is the earliest known (to me) 1942 MODEL C60L, and was clearly an Oshawa build for the Australian Government and not a) a Ministry of Supply order for Australia and b) a Holden-assembled truck.

David, why do you claim this to be an Aussie build??? Seems to me it never left Canada!
