At least, these beauties were saved form the scrappy . Would be nice to know the arrangement of how these ex NZ army trucks were imported into Australia from the Solomon Islands . Did the NZ Govt. just sell the whole lot as a closed one off deal ? Was there a open bidding arrangement ? Torokina Equipment in Sydney were selling their 'Island stock' which included not only C8AX but other surplus vehicles, they didn't stay around in business very long.
