As well as being practical they'd also be much quieter and less draughty with the coachbuilt cab. The one in Rod Diery's pic is in amazingly good condition. The ones I saw in the '70s were already badly rotted.

in good company
It took a bit of manouevering but finally it went through the gate to join its stablemates, safe at last after languishing for years under a pile of twisted metal in a scrapyard. In the shed are two FGT8 wrecks, with a third arriving in the next few weeks.

From Keith's oldCMP site, some pics of this FGT taken in 2004.
Keith, you may want to update the caption: "This is a vehicle in the final stage of it's life, about to be scrapped."  Although I must admit there's not a hell of a lot to salvaged from it!

As Keith also notes, "This is a sister truck to the one in a wartime image taken at Kairi in Queensland."
I wonder if it was in the same Regiment....
