Default MWC water truck in Australia

A guy in Victoria has one of these minus the tank

Found this pic and the details in the ARN book . The book has these as a 30 cwt which is incorrect , should be 15 cwt. The listing as a OX model is also incorrect but they have the w.b. as 101" and the tyres as 900X16 which is correct . Abandonded by COC ? not sure what that means . Boarded Jan. 45


Some of them went to Victorian bush fire brigades and the Premiers Dept. whatever that was.
