Local show
Hi Matt,
Here is one that was at our local show in Hamilton Vic back in Oct 2011 but I have not seen it since. 8.12.11 104 (640x480).jpg 8.12.11 105 (640x480).jpg 8.12.11 106 (640x480).jpg 8.12.11 107 (640x480).jpg

G'day folks,
Cheers for the pics, Stuart, someone has certainly put some effort into that one. Must be an interesting drive with the top down and no doors! I'm going to start a thread in the restoration forum. I've received some excellent information, which I'll mention over there. Thanks very much, folks. Cheers, Matt

There have been very few of the ex-army K series Inter's restored and it would be great to see one up and running, out and about.
There is only one thing I would ask of you Matt, please don't paint it up gloss! Gloss paint on an army vehicle that only ever saw service in a flat finish looks garishly wrong and totally ruins the restoration in my opinion. I don't understand why people do that as I feel it makes the vehicle appear more pimp-mobile than HMV. David

Good call, David. I was thinking of even getting it going and registered, and leaving it in its current paint, for the time being at least. I come from an historic aviation background, so I'm not a big fan of glossy WW2 machinery! With due respect and credit to the gent who restored the truck a couple of posts up.
A nicely-used look would do me, without looking too rat rod-like. Cheers, Matt

Various early Inters in the same yard. The little one next to the K-Series would make a very cute pickup.

This one is in Victoria and I'll be visiting again soon so I'll have a closer look for parts, eg. dashboard.
