Default WW1 Overland field ambulance

Does anyone know the WW1 era Overland field ambulance in the link here?

It is in Australia apparently and carries Australian army markings.

regards, Richard

Hi Richard,

It is owned by Bruce Nelson and he has just sent it to the Ambulance Museum in NSW. I saw it at Shepparton Motor Museum in October and attached are some photos I took there as they were delivering it to NSW.

I think it is a repro not an original WWI ambulance. Still a good job.

We will have to try and get it for Corowa next year.

Regards Rick.

Hi Rick,
I had come across this picture before and thought if was possible that it would be good see it at Corowa. Perhaps you can make enquiries?

Many thanks,
Richard
