A good day

[Ganmain Tony]

G'day Lionel,

Sorry to have been so slow to reply. Ive also had trouble getting on due to the MLU's server having some issue's but I'm back.

Ganmain is 40mins nor nor west of Wagga Wagga, there's myself & a good mate of mine Howard who is also an MLU'er who live here. Howards also the bloke responsible for getting me into this stuff. Keith Webb also aided & abetted (Mind you, I didnt need my my arm severely twisted..)

My truck is a 1942 Cab 12 Ford 60 Hundredweight Long wheelbase or F60L.

According to the ARN 7753 the truck was originally a 2pounder anti tank portee. (If you google this you'll see a picture of one) They look awesome!

Sadly, I dont have that back for it as it was converted to general service (transport) and had a GS back put on it in 1944 . It also had an engine change during the war.

The army must have realised that anyone in this, going up against any enemy tank would have been turned to chutney.

Engine is a Mercury 239 cubic inch side valve V8 with crab distributer.

Check out the website that Howard has created called shedfullofshit.com & let us know what you think.

Look forward to photo's of your truck and update's on progress.
