Blitz Photo Thread

After reading the 'Blitzs' thread and then a quick search, it has come to my attention that we haven't got anywhere near enough photos of the beloved and much abused Chev/Ford blitz.

I'll start with mine:

looks like someone has been having some fun Paul

.... attaboy Trentie !! now you can sit back on a quiet night and listen to her rust

Good one D tec.

This was Dads Monkey nose Chev.

I just searched on 'Blitz', and got 47 hits.
About one quarter have a photo; another quarter had a photo, but it has been removed.
That search didn't find my photo of one at Buchan.
I did find it: it was in an earlier Blitz thread.
Here it is again.

I also found a photo of a Blitz fire truck from Blackheath or Medlow Bath (NSW), now at Museum of Fire (Penrith, Sydney, NSW). That was posted to the yahoo group Things with wheels. Perhaps our regular MoF poster could place it here too (both a Blitz thread, and a fire-appliance thread)?

This was a Ford, probably a Great Wall or Chery by now.
