Does anyone have any information or the mechanical vehicle field specifications for any of the following:

Truck, 3-ton, Battery Charging (Aust) M 6370 – MVFS 1367
Truck, 3-ton, Battery Storage (Aust) M 6372 – MVFS 1368
Truck, 3-ton, Workshop (Aust) “T” Loading M 6137 – MVFS 1363
Truck, 3-ton, Garage (Aust) M 6136 – MVFS 1366
Truck, 3-ton, Machinery (Aust) “D” Loading M 6137 – MVFS 1360
Truck, 3-ton, Machinery (Aust) Armourers' Loading M 6137 – MVFS 1360
Truck, 3-ton, Workshop (Aust) “ZL” Loading M 6137 – MVFS 1360

My tray appears to be a Garage truck, but I need more information to verify this alas.


After 2 bushfires came unfortunately close the other day I have spent the time since doing extra work cleaning up around the sheds... It was very scary watching the fires approach and being buzzed by jet bombers (water) and even Elvis (a Erickson S-64 Air-Crane - N179AC) made an appearance.

Tony,

I don't remember if you ever posted the trucks chassis number? Maybe that will provide the key to a positive identification, as there were not that many C60L Garage trucks to look through to find it.

Post it (the chassis number) and I'll have a look.

Mike

oh BTW - Thanks Keith for the DMV... :P


Mike: My Tray came from Bill's and the chassis from Ryan....

The tray however has the ladder attachment bolt holes on the left hand side above the rear wheel, instead of at the rear, like the machinery/workshop trucks.
