it is P keith, bit of scale on it so have to catch the letters in the right light
when I bought it, it had a steel tank on the back and the bolted on chassis extention at the rear, the tank was steel and it had been owned by the fire brigade and sprayed red and then painted yellow once rural fire boys got hold of it, originally it was military green and for 70 year old paint its till stuck like tar to the body ! the tank was rusted out and I assumed it had the rear body replaced but maybe it had been a water tanker ot fuel bowser originally

Water or fuel
In Australian use the longer wheelbase versions were used for water or fuel - the 134" carried a 400 gallon water tank and the C60X tanker was used by the RAAF for refuelling aircraft.

Shock And Horror
Keefy - a gap in your database by not having details of a WO72. The world as we know it has ceased to exist.

C15a
 Ahh but that's a Canadian model, we only made the 400 gallon water tanker on the 134" wheelbase. There were several water tanker trailers here however. Quote:
