Let me know if there is anything else that you need.

Many thanks . That is good news , I can buy 26.9mm gal pipe here , it is a standard size .
These days gal. fittings are becoming a little scarce , the plumbers seem to use a lot of plastic pipes and fittings .
Some details. My C8 as found had the parking lights inside the main headlights , a small bulb in the reflector shell. And, a glass rear window in the cab top.
I would like to find out how a Canadian bodied Cab 11 C8 ended up here in Aust. Maybe it was a pattern vehicle for a possible Aust. version ? Would it have been shipped direct from Canada ? I believe they shipped out a single 15 cwt Canadian wireless house type vehicle as a pattern for the Aust. wireless van
