I remember it had a side mount spare wheel on the left side behind the passenger door. I still had one of the teardrop headlight glasses until not that long ago.
It was just one project too many and at the time I was mainly concentrating on Stuart Tanks and other Armoured Vehicles.
The Utility is probably still out there and technically still mine but I lost the address of the farmer years ago when my home was flood damaged.
Cheers

Hopefully somebody saved your ute. Unfortunately many of these 1930s and 40s cars have been hot rodded.. at least they were saved but many were modified to the extent that bringing them back to standard condition is a major job.
