Default Blitz rear body

This is on Oz ebay in Victoria. The owner seems to think it was originally an ambulance or Officers rear body off a Ford/or Chev Blitz before being turned into a caravan. What do the experts think?

Default Body

I think this is the one I was told about some years ago , it is or was up at Heathcote , near Bendigo. It may be the only surviving example and it appears to be in amazing shape for its age . Masonite and plywood don't last that well normally . It doesn't appear to have been re-clad during its life ?

If it's the same one , it belonged to a neighbour of a VMVC member who lived up there at Heathcote.

I 've never heard of another one anywhere . C'mon Vics, keep it down here . This is a super rare item .

Mike

Oi! Keep out of it Canuck! Don't encourage them. Can you imagine - a half-track ambulance?

Default c15a

The body in question will not fit on a C15A chassis , maybe he's in for a surprise ! Or maybe he has a 134" w.b. blitz somewhere .
