Default New Purchase

Hi Guys,
Well in the wee hours of Tuesday morning my new project finally arrived. Its an Ex-Australian army F250. Still has the data delivery plate on it and I also found the conversion plate for the dual fuel. It appears that the vehicle was fitted while in service with LPG. I have been lucky and also got an original bumper with the extra army made brackets through a seperate purchase.
This vehicle will be my regular ride once I get back on the road which should be a lot more of a straight forward task given that most parts can be sourced "off the shelf" still - even the paint!. It will be returned to the original paint colour. The cut down/hinged tray sides appear to be a army modification and I have access to another rear body so I intend to make some sides the same as the originals with the exception of making them hinged as well.

I plan to have the vehicle on the road so I can take it to Corowa 2018.

As per my original post - If there's anyone who has pictures of this type in service the information would be appreciated. I am hoping to make a small information board to stand with the vehicle when displayed.

Thanks,
