We all could do with a little rail track in the garage in order to move our CMP cabs around !
The rear engined chassis' are some type of armoured car ? https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r...13/73/6/VOL2/5 https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r...3/73/6/VOL2/13 https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r...3/73/6/VOL2/73 https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r...3/73/6/VOL2/70

Automatic tapping head for 40mm Bofors projectiles
https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r.../121/7/VOL4/17 https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r.../121/7/VOL4/12 During one of the early Corowa trips, we called in to Plumbs scrap metal yard at Wodonga - scrounging around we found a few boxes of these same Bofors projectiles and a few members bought a few. Imagine that sort of thing going on today. They also had NOS tank radial engine cylinders they were selling as collector pieces. While we were at the yard a local farmer spotted our vehicles and he stopped for a chat, he was in his Ford CMP , registered for road use.
