The wheelbase of the model is correct for type but the photo shows the C60S derrick body on a C60L chassis. This is why you can see a large gap between the cab and body in the photo.

Hmm two posts to my question and still no answers on RAAF markings. Just shows that the RAAF can't be popular at all

Cliff is right as usual..
The pole derrick was originally slated for the C-30,but usually ended up on the C 60S because the wheel base would be the same but the springs and suspension were more suited on the C 60 S or L.....

So sayeth the DND Bodies manual of 1941...........
