Bobs pic shows incorrect types of choke, throttle, IG. Switch and fuel tank gauge switch. The choke and throttle knobs should be the squarish shaped Rose Tan coloured type

Cab top
This is cab top from the C8 fitted with British Duple body . The 'speaking tube' fitment is still on the cab. When I first got this vehicle, the hand painted disruptive camo was still visible on the cab ... a very dark grey or black over the green. Interesting markings too: Z4544183 British nr. and AIF 6th div. formation sign. Later on the 1st Armoured formation sign was applied over the other sign. The vehicle is pictured in thread #10 in this post - it had been damaged in a prang , a bent chassis during it's life on a farm at Flowerdale. It was salvaged by John G from Yea who sold it to a VMVC member who lost interest so he sold it to me. I borrowed my father's 1968 Toyota Crown and hired a trailer.
The speaking tube was a short canvas tube to enable the driver to shout and communicate ? with the guys in the 8 cwt body. Interesting fact: the Canadian design for the 'speaking tube' for the C8 and F8, was a rectangular shaped canvas tube , it was fitted in the middle of the cab rear , where the glass was normally fitted.
