A near side view of a similar machine, in Parramatta. Derek Cheng of Sydney informs us that these bodies were built on either B10B or rebodied B59 chassis and this one, MO8712, is on a B59 ex PTC Melbourne 862 (IUG862). It was subsequently sold to Hawkesford's International and then passed to Kingsford Smith Transport.
