Hi Cliff,
The one in Bart's "Bible" although labeled as a CCK353 the photo shows a ACK353, same as the one that is shown in the Buda Auger Manual.
The Master Parts list shows a total of 32 x CCK353 over two contracts in 1941 and 68 x ACK353 over two contracts in 1940
I have just spoken to the guy that owns the one here in NZ and he has compared the the cab he got with the CCK, the one on my ACK352 and one of an early CCKW, possible a CCKWX.
The three cabs are very similar with the same dash board with a coupe of difference each
The ACK has the hole for the windscreen winder as it has a civy windout windscreen, the CCK has the hole formed and looks like it was punch out by buba and the CCKWX has the hole formed by not punched they all have the rectangular gauge panel.
Hopefully we will eventually get to speak to the owner of the Australian one and confirm what it really is.
I will try and post some pictures but I need to fix my scanner first and get my son off the home PC.
All The best
Kev
