Thanks very much Hanno!!
Sorry I have been absent a while, age and it's complications have taken up a lot of time the last 2 years but seems to be getting better. As well, had a major computer muck up about 18 months ago and am still trying to sort out document and photo files. Getting there, but it is slow. I do have rather a batch of non-CMP ex WWII stuff, lots of it still Canadian, I could put up in another thread if it is of interest. RHClarke: Sadly, I do not have the original source marked but I will try to find it for you and if so I will post it here. Now I have to read the attachment instructions again so I can post full size photos  Bill

Great pictures
Gday Bill,
The photo's are terrific...thanks for taking the time to post them up. The history of the Blitz in all its forms is a fascinating one and their military history is only part of the story... Their civilian roles never cease to amaze me and your contribution here is invaluable and throughly interesting. If youve got more to share, please do...

Asia
Hi Bill,
The photo of the truck and uniformed females has got to be in Malaya (sic) judging by the buildings. I have post war photos of trucks in Singapore and Ghost Trucks in Malaysia, better find them... Wayne.

Thanks for the kind words, gents.
I guess I will have to continue with thumbnails for the moment. Here, a batch from Argentina, a couple with interesting body rebuilds Bill

Quite so Eduard..........
That is where I got some of the photos I have collected also. Argentina seemed to have purchased quite a lot of surplus CDN and US vehicles right after the war and many seem to have survived. I believe other South American countries did the same thing and I am making a small research project on the subject. Bill

Here's another which closely resembles an Australian CGT9 cut down.
Price as converted to $AU is around $16,150. Link to advertisement.
