Fraser Island CMPs
Quite a number of CMPs were used as 'buses' on Fraser Island.
That was the days before the police & transport authorities took much of an interest in Fraser Is. road safety and vehicle condition. One of my local parts sources has at least two CMPs that had served time on Fraser, and the years of exposure to salt water corrosion has left them in VERY poor condition. One still has the bus body on it, but you wouldn't brush against it for fear of getting Tetanus!!!! Nothing is a total write-off but jeezus these Fraser Island trucks come very close to being absolutely useless. There is a steering wheel I fancy though. Chev unfortunately! Wood don't rust.
