C60L in Aust
In the late sixties during the nickel boom in Western Aust I had a C60L w/winch , modified cab , water carting truck .
Used it to cart water to remote exploration camps in the bush on weekends .
I have attached a pic of the truck towing a trailer with a busted landrover and it in turn towing a burnt out landrover ( fuel pump leaked fuel in the sump ). I towed the 2 l/rovers about 40km , dumped one and carted the other one a further 160 kms .
I appologise for the quality of the pic as driving a blitz all day tends to make the hands shake .
The vehicle is parked on the edge of a hard salt water lake , this used to be pretty scary in the winter when it was covered in water. The location can be found on Google Earth 32 15 56 07 S
120 34 35 66 E .
