Hopefully we will eventually get to speak to the owner of the Australian one and confirm what it really is.

It's definately a Chev, not GMC. I think off the top of my head the model code was G6107 or similar??

I tried to source a couple of engine side panels with the Chevrolet stamping for the owner of this Auger truck from the Humphries' Yard in Nelson, and also know of another recently restored in Invercargill that was an ex-Fire Truck. The Nelson Chev had 6 stud wheels and Timken Diffs.

I'll add it to the list of vehicles requiring chasing for photos.
