Default Ford LAAT

Hi Mark,

I looked at your initial posts and now know what a LAAT looks like. I had been thinking it was similar to the Australian self-propelled Bofors as per the attached from the AWM via Pinterest.

I have attached another picture of that variant in "The History of Ford in Australia" by Norm Darwin and looking through a magnifying glass there isn't even a lower rear cabin back to hold the upper rifle bracket let alone rifle butt holders on that variant!

Maybe a dumb question but what makes a truck a LAAT and not a GS vehicle?
Is it the fit out inside the rear body?

Cheers,
