the 351 ambulance box bodies is interesting. I wonder what type they were.
the Australian pattern with the canvas screen at the rear or the other type with closing rear doors?
hmmm may have to do some research on that aspect of it if I can.

Cliff, These would be the early Indian Army type with the canvas awning at the rear. Only Holden built those and only Ford built the other later type on the F30 chassis.
Whilst many of the Fords have survived, none of the Holden ones have, as far as I know. I wonder which WO designation they had.
A possible candidate is WO30 which was for medium wheelbase Chevs, and we even have one with a contract number: S/M 2127.
I wonder whether David can shed any light?
