Post Farm Visit,

G'Day All,
Just some random pix of a recent farm visit.
First up, all that remains of the WW11 RAAF training base, Uranquinty, NSW.
After the war the base was used as a settlement camp for European refugees & immigrants. Mainly Women & Children.

Of possible more interest to MLU'ers, check out these seat/benches. Similar to those I photographed & posted last week in an F60L, but much longer & of lighter construction. Could they be GMC or Studebaker?

Default Truck seats on shed wall

Howard
The seat is off an Ex Aust Army C1500 International.
These came out in about 1968 and went thru to the early 70's.

G'Day Swiss Chris,
If this wheel carrier is of use to you I will rescue it. I don't believe it is CMP, but, I am no bloody expert...

Default Truck seats

Thanks Howard
They are a bit hard to find , managed to procure some here in the West which will do for a pattern.
I would take you up on the offer but distance is a bit of a problem.
Regards
Jim S.
