You are getting close to Coonabarabran when I start to see you post pictures of trucks I know! Used to drive that old green Blitz as a kid during wheat harvest.

Too right
Much closer and you could throw rocks at them over your back fence

Todays find
Definately different at least
Cab 12 F15 with handmade bodywork
Apparently by a company in Australia just after WW2
apparently there is another the same somewhere on NSW south coast
Does anyone have any further information or details on these vehicles ?

Default Similar
Sort of has similar lines to the S1 Scout Car doesn't it and is on the F15 chassis, but the differences are too great in other ways.

Definately nothing resembling factory built
Handmade from bits the guess
Ugly as a hatfull
Built on wooden framework
They even removed the cab 12 arches
Cab 13 dash
Different fuel tanks
Added about a foot of wooden floor past the rear of the floor plates with a bench seat over it .probably not a bad idea for at least a bit of legroom

Default Chev ute
Andrew,
That Chev ute is a 1940 model and could well be ex-Army. Seems to have green paint as well under the other colours. It would make a great MV rally vehicle.
Regards Rick
