Default Ok.............

Thanks cliff

Your firsr pic shows a number that may be OK ..Anyway I will pass that onto the owner ....

The car is a replica of sorts as its been made up from scratch on a genuine C11ADf chassis .. all the body was hand built , using an original example in QLD .. the original is probably the only complete one in Aust.

A VMVC member recalls one in the mid 1950's , the father of a friend had one and they used it for shooting trips ... I saw the remains of one one at the old Caloundra ( Hughes ) army museum in 1979 ... still in its faded desert paint amazing sight, but was only a bare skeleton . I believe it ended up as one of the donor wrecks for the above restoration. I've seen some archive footage of on in the N.T. during the war .. a marriage car .. two army personnel being married .
