Good day Jason,
Nice to see another one saved. I have a rear section of a No 8 body I would be interested in selling, pm me if interested.
Cheers Ken

Hi Ken,
If Jason doesn't buy it I'd be very interested myself. I'll wait to hear the outcome as I don't want to jump the queue!
Cheers,
Tony

Good day Tony,
The body has sold , I am happy to see it go to where it will do some good in another restoration.

Cheers Ken

Wow, that was quick Ken! Where did it finish up going? I've since learned it's a Chev body so less appropriate for my resto.

Cheers,
Tony

I know Tony was hoping it was a ford to but no joy, if it was i would have got it.
Trying to get a hold of Adelaide military museum but no one will get back to me.

So i am trying another avenue my dad retired from the army after 30 odd years now works for Veterans Affairs so we will try to get the paper work through freedom of information he said it might take up to 6 months if we are lucky but i will give anything ago at the moment.

Default Adelaide No8

Theirs is a sort of facsimile upper rear built on a genuine No8 chassis and subframe. You really need a genuine one to copy, and there is one a little closer to home.
