OK Phil

That's interesting, if you can manage it , no hurry, take a pic or two of your "aftermarket" jeep fuel tank.

In the 1950s , there were many gazetted contracts for the govt, buying " jeep spares" . So many, that the spares must have been acquired in order to keep the aging wartime era jeep fleet going.

Some of the purchases of Jeep spares were from odd organisations, such as the :

State Electricity Commission of Victoria

AG Healing ( surplus dealers )

Stokoe Motors ( the Willys agents in Victoria )

Loscam ( surplus dealers in Port Melbourne)

PM Stedman & company: NSW

EA Machin & Co: Victoria ( 535 Elizabeth St Melbourne, automotive parts house )

Dominion Motors

Northern Spare parts Co: NSW

Bradley bros Ltd: NSW

WM Haughton & Co Victoria

Dependable Accessories Ltd Victoria ( manufacturers in Collingwood and later Heidelberg )

Brooklands accessories Ltd NSW

Ceelx Pty Ltd Victoria (oil seals)

Roljak Products Co. NSW
