Excuse my ignorance, Ian, but does he live in that thing or is it just parked there?

Lived in?
Hi Bill,
I was told that they had traveled around in it, but have 'upgraded' to a bus. So only short trips as the fuel price made long drives prohibitive. Registration has expired, so I dont envisage many drives from now on... So the short answer is; No its not lived in anymore.. & Rich, I firmly agree. As aesthetically incorrect as it is.. There is a warhorse beneath the tin. Better than a gate guardian, or a paddock memorial. As Tony Smith says: (not the Tony Smith) What is a thread without a photo... Here's the underbelly, complete with plumbing...& modern fuel tank...

years ago a bloke from Canberra contacted me for some blitz parts and he told me he had a 6x6 ford blitz that was fitted with a ford 6 cylinder engine and it served in Darwin during the war as a medical truck of some sort.I never chassed him up at the time and I belive he has since passed on, often wounded if the blitz was a F60H made into a 6x6

Passing parade
Hi Max,
Seems like a lot of fellows are passing on. Poor old Laurie from the mill the other day... Keith, Copper lines are not too bad. I have not had a problem with them in the past... I was young & more bullet proof then! Brake failures were not a worry. Reminiscent of a ride in a C60L at your place.  Ian

Copper brake line
In Canada it is illegal and if you are stop for a road inspection you will be grounded until it is replace.
A road rock could pierce the copper tubing and especially with the CMP one chamber master cylinder you cannot take a chance. Today brake steel tubing are available and they are very flexible. If you want I could give you a brand of tubing that you do not require tool to bend and it does a job better than the original. I used to be a salesman and these tubing were one of the product I was selling.
