Default Tanks

Hi Phil

That's interesting, if you can manage it , no hurry, take a pic or two of your jeep fuel tank.

In the 1950s , there were many gazetted contracts for the govt, buying " jeep spares" . So many, that the spares must have been acquired in order to keep the aging wartime era jeep fleet going.

Some of the purchases of Jeep spares were from such odd organisations, such as the :

State Electricity Commission of Victoria

AG Healings ( surplus dealers )

Stokoe Motors ( the Willys agents in Victoria )

Loscam ( surplus dealers in Port Melbourne)

PM Steadman & company: NSW

EA Machin & Co: Victoria

Dominion Motors

Northern Spare parts Co: NSW
