Guess where when what and who
I'm thinking a certain secretary may have the answer, but I'd also like to hear theories about the apparent impossibility of a FE Holden towing a CMP ambulance!
I took this pic many moons ago, the above-mentioned person is visible.

Times
No, it had been around a long time when this pic was taken. I have some shots of Hugh driving it - he hasn't changed a bit! The little girl has however blossomed into a lovely adult.

a stab at it
Where? Victoria...it's up hill and the number plates look funny.
What? Ford broke down... nothing new there. When? If that little girl is Jan at around age 8 or 9 the photo must have neen taken around 1998 or 1999. am I close? Wayne. |

Wayne, as the first guess, your the closest so far.

Thanks Keith. My MLU spy in the UK sent me the link as I have only just turned the computer on. Feel free to put some more photos up. I will show mum and dad next weekend at Corowa.
The photo is taken at Pont Lonsdale where I grew up and my parents still live. The shop is still there. My mother may have one or two photos of Keith when he was helping dad.

Is that Holden tucked away in the depths of the garage now?

Woodstock
Great idea, but Woodstock had already happened. This was in the hills around Warburton, the vehicle a freshly demobbed White Scout Car, ARN 123123, still in deep bronze green. The lad to the right of the blonde girl is my brother Peter. Trevor, Rod and Bert Barker are also in this pic.

Munga
David: looks like an Auto Union Munga parked beside the Scout Car. A nifty little 2-stroke, 3 cylinder DKW engine powers it along.

Munga
Yes it was a Munga, I remember riding in it down a rutted track and being very impressed at how it handled the rough ground.

I thought the wheel assay looked familiar but could not place it. The German Army surplussed out quite a few of them in Southern Manitoba about 20 years ago but I have not seen one on or off the road in a long time now.

By the way, Keith
I was wondering why the push bar attached to the Blitz was so long looking. Was the driver trying to keep the Holden as far in front as possible to help in avoiding any of the parts that fell off of it???
