Obsession? I thought it was a terminal disease?
The LP2's were all assembled at the G.M plant in the Hutt valley ( north of Wellington) They were originally to be built at the Hutt Valley Railways workshops,(N.Z.R.Hutt shops, where the 40 LP(1's)were built) but when the order numbers were increased, it was decided those workshops were too small, and so, relocated to N.Z's G.M plant.(as above)
With the carriers containing ford componentary,I am now wondering why it wasn't done at the Ford plant. I guess they were busy already with other war production.
