The 'green suit' were my working coveralls, Aust Army workshop issue - just the thing for recovering junk. Don't remember the location of that particular image, but most of the others were in the quarry owned by Rod McP.

The No.8 is under restoration by another MLU member.

Inspiring pix

I downloaded all those pics Mike - I discover little details of assembly all the time when pics of (disassembled) CS8's show up.
One day I'll be able to get to your neck of the woods to check out yours and that one 'up the road' from you ...
Meantime mine has a set of good wheels and tyres and am progressing on chassis tidy.
