Hi Clive, sorry, but I do not know the owner. But it gets used for rallies regularly. Is there something you want to know?

I have a Weapons of War title ready for press this Fall on Machinery Lorries and I need a decent colour photograph for the cover. The sole example in the Cdn War Museum is on interior display and cannot be readily photographed outside.

If anyone sees this lorry I would be grateful for a 3/4 shot from the front, in 'portrait' mode. Thnx.

Clive, have you asked Andre Gibeau about whether he would be willing to help on the Machinery Lorry photo hunt. He has a beatifully restored/original example, although it isn't painted a dull green or dog turd colour.

Grant,
Is Andre's truck a C60X as well, or a C60L with Machinery body? Do you happen to know if any of the original equipment is left inside? I had a look at a C60X here in Holland two years ago, and although it was fully fitted with gear....sadly most of it was post WW2.

Clive,
I guess Hanno or Andre can help you out with the picture. If not, I can have a look for you, I recon I will probably have a pic of nice restored C60X.

If I am correct the owner from the C60X picture is from Amsterdam and he also owns/owned a Dodge D15. Sorry....haven't got a name or contact address.

Grant - Andre's is in RCAF blue and I would rather have one in dog-turd brown.

If not, I can have a look for you, I recon I will probably have a pic of nice restored C60X.

Alex - Many thanks, I would appreciate that.

Like this one?

Note: I have split off this subject from the original thread.

Don't know if this one is any good?
