1945 Ford F60S Water truck

[Tony Smith]

Original vehicles still turn up from time to time.

This Ford F60S Water Truck was recently picked up, and is in very well looked after condition. The story attached to it was that it was transferred direct to the Bush Fire Brigade direct from the Army (not purchased through auction) having been specially selected. (Mike Kelly, have you come across 4G49560F in the AWM files? I'd like to confirm it's disposal story.) The Odometer shows 12300 miles, and this would be consistent with a 1945 built specialist vehicle that went into pampered post-war use.
