Smile Another One

G'Day Chaps,
Another one found at a secret location on my way home from a secret location. This is the best unrestored 12 cab I have ever seen!

Data plate says "F60S" however looks more like a "L" chassis.
The shed was very dark & I only had my phone to take the snaps. I could not see under the truck properly but as far as I can see the only things missing are the mirrors, the Ford script on the dash and the bonnet badge.
The truck was bought ex fire service in running condition in the '70s & has been parked in the same spot since. The owner has plans to restore it upon retirement in a few years time.
The TAC signage has remained in good nick, too, as it was fitted back-to-front and therefore escaped the two or thee coats of paint that the rest of the truck has copped.
Speaking of paint, the inside & underside paint is a much darker shade of green, indicating post-war service??
