Tony This photo of the parked ZPI radar trailers hooked up to the Chev towing vehicles is very misleading. Terry Hanes who was one of the Canadians who went to OZ in 1944 as one of the technical support detachment assures me that these Chev tow vehicles were intended for use as cable trucks. Two FWD trucks per convoy were assigned as the prime movers for both the ZPI and APF cabins. The trucks shown in the AWM photo did not have the power or traction to tow either of the radar cabins. Terry can only guess what the Aussies had in mind.
