Hello Fortunate Son,

Great photos, mate.

I wonder if the PMG (forerunner of Telstra) was still working Model T Fords in 1937, ten years after Henry stopped making them. The concrete mixer truck looks a lot rougher than the truck with the water pump, so I wonder if it had been sold off by the Postmaster General's Department by the time the picture was taken?

Keep up the good work, see if you can post more photos or information, we love to see them.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!
