Default Fishermens Bend Melbourne

Fishermens Bend Melbourne

Unusual Indian pattern soft top Chev truck with the broad arrow on the bonnet

https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/r...13/73/6/VOL2/2

These vehicles look well used and knocked about, possibly M.E. returned . There is a battered 1940 Ford staff car in the background.

L10541 was returned from the Middle East .

We all could do with a little rail track in the garage in order to move our CMP cabs around !

The rear engined chassis' are some type of armoured car ?
