Come to think of it, was there ever such a thing as an F60L CAB 11 (Aust) ie an F60L cab 11 assembled in Australia, with Australian Army mods and with an Australian standard GS body?

I love a good debate, and this one will be interesting.......

Probably not Mike. I did this model as I owned a New Zealand F60 11 cab without the vents about 30 years ago. The model should have had an all steel rear body as per the factory specs but I like the wood of the Aussie versions.

Could you please elaborate on how you do this? I have been trying to work out the Message Editor Interface settings.

Thanks,
Hanno

Hi guys
thank you very much for your kind help!
Cliff, PM sent. I believe all these small errors will be corrected in my new kit
Howard, any pictures will help, expecially Cab 12. I have almost finished Cab11, only the doghouse needs proper shape. The rest is about right I believe, though there are some little things which required compromises, not everything can be done perfectly in scale,molding technology has some limits, and wall thickness of the sheet metal in scale is always a big pain and headache to deal with. Cab 12 will be next, and any more pictures will help sooner or later, many thanks
Anthony, thank you, these are great and will help a lot to get my Ford Cab 11right
Once again, thank you all, and keep them coming please
Cheers
Libor

When I got all the pics loaded with the paperclip buttton ..then I clicked on the paper clip again and a small window opened with an attachment button.then each picture you can write words beside.. If that makes any sense.

The cab 12 photos (bottom 3) are of an F8 (8cwt). Is this different to the 15cwt, 30cwt and 60cwt models?

Off topic, but thanks Anthony for the help with posting. I just learned another way.
