Truck, tipping 2 1/2 cubic yards Aust
Who has one of these vehicles handy and can take some detailed photographs of the hoist for a friend located new Albury who is restoring a Ford.

Need to be a bit careful: there are four different hoists and control lever set-ups. Can your friend provide some images of what he has (even the cab lever config would be enough for ident purposes). Mike C

Tipper
Therein lies the problem... he has a rusty tipper body (not sure about the hoist) and a different F60S which was not a tipper. He had an ARN from the F60S, 57006 which was also marked "AIF L". I happened to have photographed that page from the AWM 126 series of ledgers and it was listed as a "truck, KTN", and disposed of back to FMC.
So if he has the steel body it won't be the first type, and I think the 4th type was on a Chevrolet chassis.

He's got a more interesting truck, though, a Kitchen! A GS base body decked out with cooking kit.
All steel tipper body was the No.4. I'll check the hoist type and get back to you.... Mike C

Kitchen
Yes I thought that was what it stood for. Interesting how the F60S (and indeed C60S) were mostly used in specialist roles here.
It would be a challenging task to find a body to suit I'd think.

Keith,
His other 'problem' is the wheels: if he intends to build a tipper, the all-steel bodied No.4 had 8.25x20 all round, duals at rear, so he'd have to find a set of wheels and spacers as well: might be easier to locate/build an all-steel GS body! The wheels were Australian manufacture and quite specific to the vehicle type. But a Kitchen ..... now that would be unique! Mike C

Good on you, Barrie: is it an all-steel tipper body with rounded bottom edges?
