I think you meant to say 9th Aust Infantry Division, Rick, especially as the image was taken circa Nov 1942 - 6 Div were well home by then - and the combined unit/formation sign configuration is post-Jan 1942.

It's a 1 ton Chev. Left Australia in June 1941, and, as there is no disposal information recorded, was probably left in either North Africa or Ceylon.

Interesting cable 'eye' device on the front - similar in concept to the that fitted later to White M3A1 AOP vehicles.
