The front of this old bushfire truck shows an interesting history, since it,s a long way from home, its still in use by a farmer out western NSW.

Have you got a picture of the whole truck ?

Bob McNeill · #6 03-02-09, 09:35

No the owner was not keen on any pics I was lucky to get these after some hassles, supposed he thinks some one will STEAL his Fffford blitz. Bob

What you are saying then it is nothing too interesting then ,being only a mere Ford

Oooh, a ffford? It must be a Welsh Stowage version.

So it is an F30? Thought I recognised those Ford Bolt heads!
