F60L ARN 46660 Cab 12

Now that I have managed to get the photos up, I can go into a bit more detail, the farmer that owned this truck was a Changi survivor. The gentleman passed away in 2013 so he was a true survivor. He was a member of the 2/10th Field Regiment. His family didn't know until the 1990's that he had been a POW.

I bought the truck off his son, who didn't want the truck ending up at the wreckers, as it has always been loved and cared for by the whole family.

The truck had been registered for road use up until 1994, it was then used for another 20 years as a facility for emptying grain chaser bins into. It appears to have the almost perfect remains of the original wooden body but without floor boards, as the bin empties through the bottom.

Cheers Ken
