Ugly as sin, gotta love it!
Looks like a great project, certainly stand out in a crowd. Best of luck with it. Rich.

Nice truck
Rich called it right when he said "ugly as sin", but what a nice truck. Go for it Rob.
 I would think several of those survive today. I do remember seeing a complete one advertised in the last few years but don't recall its location. Brian

Dear Rob,
first off as you might now my interests are post WW2 so this fits in nicely. It is as other have said such an ugly duckling its beautiful. If Marc Montgomery doesnt go over to the "County", I will for you, both he and I have reasons to be there. Just for your info Rob, There does not seem to be any examples of the six wheel drive Salamander based on the Stalwart derived fire fighting platform. There were quite a number in RCAF service but have all been scrapped it would appear. Lovely project potential there, good luck Robin
