2 Dead F-60L monkeyfaces

[MurrayC]

On a recent trip to a station north of Perth with friends, we were shown the remains of two F-60L type 12s and were allowed to take the engines/gearboxes for future projects.

If David Hayward is interested the I.D. tags read:-
(1) Serial 16869; Motor 2G47579F; Model F-60L; S/M OR; C/O2037
(2) Serial 16347; Motor 2G47755F; Model F-60L; S/M OR; C/O2037
{the mot. nos were hard to read so there may be a discrepancy}

Both were apparantly bought from the Aust, Army by the owner's father and worked to death as drilling rigs. Both were re-engined and, interestingly, one of the doner motors came from a Marmon Herrington vehicle. This motor has an engine number of WC- with 5 digits behind it.(WC-*****). The word Canada does not appear on it and the crab distributor was enclosed in a waterproof box with waterproof spark leads.

I will attempt to attache a photo.
