Default Another very low mileage CMP



Ian Styles of Temora has just bought this F60L "T" Stores and has commenced disassembly.



Here's the Speedo...



And this is unusual from several viewpoints. First, all the serial numbers match - chassis, engine, gearbox and data plate. Secondly, it's rare to see a chassis number actually stamped into the frame.

More pics here.

Oh, bad luck! These Fords only ever had a 60 year/2000 mile Warranty!

Darnit, within mileage, missed out by 2 years on the warranty!

Excellent find, thanks for sharing the pics with us Keith! I'm guessing this F60L will take the place of the 1942 F60L awating it's turn outside to make Ian's full trio of the main Ford cab 13 CMP wheelbase versions in use by Australia?

Speaking of pictures, any chance of sharing piccies of Ian's collection of 4x4 and 6x6 Ford/Marmon-Herringtons?

Thanks,
Hanno
