VH-DRC DHA-3 Drover 1
(c/n 5007)
I am indebted to Geoff Goodall for this copy
of a Ben Dannecker collection shot showing c/n 5007
as VH-DRC
(enlargement of rego below). This evocative photo
was taken at remote Augustus
Downs
Station, Queensland. Anyone identify the truck? Maybe a
Fargo? This Drover went through
several modifications to a
Mark 1F, then to a Mark 2 and finally a Mark 3 with Lycoming engines.
In 1963 it was re-registered into the RFDS
series registrations as VH-FDS .
