Default A spot of misinformation

This page about relics in Papua New Guinea has some interesting images including this one of a C60L, but has a misleading caption:



"These were made by Chevrolet and International at least..."

Which is interesting and possibly comes from the International Harvester ACCO vehicles loosely patterned on the CMP often referred to here as the Inter Blitz or ACCO Blitz.

Default Misinformation?? Damned lies!

There's reference to "Mitsubishi Betty" and a pic of her flying an F1/11! . Can't see the Pilot's face, was it Betty? And who was "Kawasaki Tony"? I knew a bloke called Dave that rode Kwakkas, but I only ever had Suzukis!
