Default Ac

Thanks by the way for proving that instrument panels were made by AC Spark Plug, Flint, MI (Division of General Motors Corporation). I would have thought that McKinnon Industries in St Catherines, Ontario (AC licensees) would have done so.

Ran in to the former owner of the first f60l cab 12 i have ,and was talking about the old girl and mentioned he had been looking through some old slides he had found
He was kind enough to get them copied to photo form and send a copy to me
I think photos like these are great to see their previous use and a bit of their history
