Thanks, Warren,

When you are able to send me the chassis number, I'll see what I have on it (if anything).

Thanks for your comments on the C60X article: I had forgotton it was up on Keefy's OldCMP site: it was also published in the MVPA's Army Motors some time ago.

Yes: retired, moved to the USA and loving it. I could only shake my head in dismay recently when I read about the new replica firearms laws being enacted in Victoria: no such difficulties with such things here!

Default Raaf c60x

Warren,

The RAAF museum at Pt. Cook at one time had a complete RAAF C60X refueller truck. It looked like they got it straight out of service as it was complete and unmolested when we saw it down there many years ago during a VMVC outing . It was in the centre quadrangle . God knows where it is now . Does that museum still exist ? They probably moved it on as they were mainly into aircraft restoration. Last time I saw it was around 1980. it was in yellow livery BTW .

Mike .

I have it on my Dodge, for recovery purposes, not for it's good? looks and when you have lost all traction and are starting to dig it it' works exceptionally well, 1/2 sheet on each side and I have a spare set of 2 half sheets to go on the trailer if needed (have never needed it)....
