Saw this interesting truck on the road between Albury and Corowa. What is it? How long has it been there? Quite sure Corowa attendees who passed this way would be well aware if it's existence. |
This is a Thornycroft Nubian 4x4 and Dave Mottram and I gave it a close inspection a few years ago. It would appear to have originally been a fire tender and very likely for airfield use as the RAF had some like it, you can see where the body has been cut away and cab has been changed at the back. It will date from early 1950's.
