yes ..... .............

Sorry ..two were owned by a VMVC member in Melbourne , A. Browne , he had plans but eventually sold them to Bruce Wiltshire ? some years ago . I helped move one of them to Yarra Glen . Andrew had found a NOS engine and a few bits at Hughes Coburg , Hughes had bought the surplus C8's and sold them after the war . Bruce drove down and picked them up ..so they ended up in Southern NSW . I have a detailed official drawing of the C8 Portee, Rob Van Meel kindly posted it to me years ago !

Just remembered . Another C8 2 Pounder portee was in Kilmore wreckers , it was upside down in the grass , we stopped and took a pic of it . I think it was scrapped and off to China . The owner of the yard was a well known alcoholic and not to be messed with !
