Aust PMG C15

[Rod Diery]

I was lucky enough this weekend to have a good look at a unique Australian CMP

This is the one of the versions of the C15 rebuilt post-war for the Postmaster General's department (PMG). They were used by telephone linesmen and service technicians.

These trucks were stretched 30" for a 131" wheelbase. The cab is highly modified, having a vertical windscreen and new full height doors complete with sliding windows. (Some versions even had wind up windows) The roof hatch has been removed and plated over.

This truck is in very good condition and was driven into the shed where it is now stored about two years ago. It is located near Narrogin in Western Australia. It doesn't have a body on it unfortunately.
