RAAF ATR2 wireless sets in use.

Ford line up is in the Middle East. Looks as if these vehicles have just been unloaded from the ship.

Might be a good idea to keep these SLV pics in the one post, rather than splitting them up and posting them on sub-forums.

WS 101, WS108 and WS11 training .

1941 Willys car used by Melbourne Police during WW2 - fitted with a Police radio receiver ( caption is incorrect, not a 77 model ) . Bodywork was probably by Flood. The few sedans assembled had GM-H bodies fitted. There was a 41 Willys sedan up at Bendigo for sale in the early 1980s , purchased new by a doctor, the reg. papers were in the glovebox . I could have bought it for $100 , a very rare car and RHD. Pic is sourced from the Vic. Police museum.
