Gooday all
Ken Hughes had a CC60L Chev in his yard at Kingaroy in Queensland I don't know what happened to it.It was in reasonable condition and it looked quite tough with the single tyres.That is the only one I have seen in the flesh.
Cheers Ken

Default S.m.???

I was mulling over which contract the Aussie CC60L/X2 was supplied under. There are various possibilities if it was an example of one delivered to the Mid-East and then issued to the AIF. However, I just cannot see that at this juncture as there are no obvious mods. There is one 1942ish contract S/M 2209 which was CC60L/X2 lorries with no indication as to whom it was for BUTTTT S/M 2202/3/4/5/6/8 were all British orders for Australia and S/M 2210 was for NZ and UK delivery. As there is no Census Number listing this would appear to be a Dominion order, and I conject therefore that it was for Australian delivery. Anyone got any better ideas please? Regrettably S/M 2209 is not listed in the Canadian 1942 Contracts listings, and neither is S/M 2007.
