Default Morris C8 A/T

I would like to comment :

There are around six Morris C8 A/T portees in Australia I know of . All are in a rather sad state and missing the rear portee body . But , interestingly they are original and are unconverted to the 17 pndr specs .

This may be because they were refugee cargo intended for Malaya or ex Middle East cargo ?

I include a pic of one in NSW . Another one has just been sold here , unrestored without portee body . It takes a game person to restore a vehicle like this on this side of the world , without access to archives or help .

Mike
