Were there really so many Keith? In my own travels I've seen very few, in fact at present I can only bring to mind four examples, three C60L and one F60L. As opposed to the ubiquitous late production 60S, of which I can bring to mind dozens and dozens, particularly Fords.
Interestingly though I can bring to mind several late production F60L with coach built cabs, and it only now occurs to me there may be a tie in here with our late production FGT chassis overhead cranes of recent discussion, which all have a fabricated rear cab and roof, and all but one have a fabricated windscreen frame. It's as if there was a shortage of these panels late in the war, or perhaps they were built post war...? Do we have any explanation for the coach built cabs? If so it may apply to the FGT/F22 vehicles under discussion as well.
