Default F60S Old Restoration

This truck was restored in the late 90's. In 2002 I sent these photos to Keith Webb, who uploaded them to oldcmp.net. These days I was able to recover some photos, plus others that I already had, so I will show them all here. The truck belonged to the Argentine Army. It was auctioned in the 60s and in the 90s, Jorge Hadad began this adventure of restoring it. But at that time the internet did not exist and there were only some manuals and photos of WW2. It seems to have been a Laat, which was modified after the war in the workshops of the Argentine Army.

Maybe this truck came New to my country from Canada.
Through the holes in the front bumper, I would think it was late production 1945

Jorge Hadad passed away in 2014. He was one of those who went ahead in looking for and restoring a military vehicle, in those times when the collection of military vehicles was little known. Currently the truck is under the care of some of Jorge's friends.
