C8AX -199 is an NZ delivered cab-chassis C8AX with a repro built HUP body. Built from plans drawn from photos, and utilising C8AX components where possible (eg, the rear corners of the cab roof now form the rear body corners), it's an impresive job. With a little coaxing, we may see the owner on here to tell more of the story. The rear and side doors were made by a sheetmetal worker who produced the dies to stamp out the door inners! Rear door: All in all, a nice unit that, with a soon-to-be-done freshen up, makes a very comfortable family tourer for MV events! |

It's still good, though, to be able to record the C8AX data plate. |

Tony,
I don't know much about the details of these things. The data plate is on the dashboard unit which is detached from the cab frame and lying on the chassis. It may not be from the same vehicle as I assumed. Terry |

Cross reference from Heads Up: C8AX in New Zealand:
Serial number reads as XH8448-259. Seems we haven't seen this one on here before. 1649019104_2.jpg
