Thanks Ian and Mike, I forgot to mention it was a RAAF vehicle. It's one I saved from the scrappy in Drouin last year, which I subsequently managed to ID from a 40 year old photo taken by Keith in Noojee, about 50 km away. Interesting to find it was a Wireless truck, do we have any pics of these?
Tragic to lose the RAAF vehicle registers after they'd actually been found and placed in safe hands. They should never have been relinquished back to dickhead staffers at Vic Barracks where they'd be virtually guaranteed to wind up lost or round filed. Champion effort by you Mike to transcribe the records, that would have been a herculean task.
