This old Chev will be familiar to a few of us.
Keith Webb photographed it back in 2003 for his oldCMP site while Euan's father I believe purchased its Ford stablemate from the same property some years ago ( Please correct me if I'm wrong ).
The truck now resides with me. Originally I only intended to photograph it. But it was in need of a home and I couldn't say no.
A former State Electricity Commission truck built for lopping trees back from telephone poles. The modifications I'm told were done in Leopold, just outside of Geelong. So it has a bit of local history. It is possibly one of two trucks built. The others whereabouts are unknown.


And is it just me or do the doors on Blitz's ignore what ever you try to tell them when your transporting them. " Bloody stay shut!" you yell. But they just spring open the first chance they get and try to embrace the world, scaring the shit out of oncoming traffic!
