BUT, if it's the one I think it is, came out originally with an air change P8516 Spicer 4X4 transmission which was later swapped out for a bushranger, may have even been running a Spicer auxilliary behind that.
Very H/D at the time, as I said if it's the one I'm thinking of, I ended up with the Spicer box. Bloke told me at the time that he wanted the extra gearing to "dock the Queen Mary".
Big unit in it's heyday.

Dave . His name might be Billy Colner. He had an Oshkosh with a tipping trailer working aroung Wollongong.

Looking back at the photo I wish that I had taken a photo of the AEC parked behind the Oshkosh.

They all seem to have different headlights too. Makes you wonder whether they were just making out of someones spare parts bin.
