very interesting but what is that lump of metal on the front?

Hi Cliff,
Obviously a snow plough (plow) bracket, and a rather substantial one at that. At a guess, I would say you don't see too much snow in Australia ?

...former AIF CMP ex-Mid East delivery and then sold to Australia and shipped on to Aussieland. Pity there is no id plate inside.

Yes, we tend to use several four letter words when the white stuff descends in this little ol' country of ours !!!

Having looked at it again, it COULD be the home made mount for some sort of crane jib ?

SOMEONE out there knows the answer ! Find 'em please, let us all get some sleep.

Although there is a Melbourne suburb called Brunswick, isn't New Brunswick in Canada?
