C60 data plates
 

Here is a scan of the data plates that came with the truck.

I would have kept them on the truck if the date was one more day as Sept 30 is my Birthday.

Data Plates
 

Thanks for that! I have added the details to my database. That's the third Australian C60L to that contract that I now know of. Note the suggestion that this was a virtually full built-up chassis and not CKD assembled by Holden's.

Why Australian?
 

This vehicle is in Canada, and there are no GM-H WO markings on the data plate which is marked as per a normal Canadian delivery.

The only Australian PE contracts I've seen are:

PE-211-16

PE-211-103

PE- contracts
 

I getahered that the truck was in Canada but have always belived that the PE- series were Australian contracts. Canadian were C.D.L.V. etc.
