Default ACCO

From the 60s, the replacement vehicle range for CMP, built by International Harvester are sometimes called "ACCO Blitz" To explain the name, It started as Australian Army Cab-Over (AACO); when they were commercially built they became Australian Commercial Cab-Over (ACCO) and that's become the designation.
