Hi Phil,
1943 is the year painted under the bonnet, all of the data plates say c60l winch truck with a GS body. I assume it is orginal, it was a bush fire truck when I brought it. Luckily they kept the sides and rear tailgate, the sides had been cut in half so we had to weld them together. The floor had holes cut in to it for hoses and bolting down the tank and pumps and the wheel boxes removed to make the tray flat. I haven't bothered to fix that as the rear wheels don't seem to rub on the tray, even when going off-road.I have included some photos of the truck when we got it home.
Rob

Default Thanks for the additional pictures

Hi Rob-

Thanks for the pictures they show some of the details that I was curious about. In particular the tail gate latch. Are there chains that prevent the sides from dropping all the way?

Cheers Phil
