Are those 16 inch rims? And Ford or Chev?

Yes, they were 16" built on Ford chassis, the one pictured was the only F15A version, the others were built on F15 chassis, so these were conventional front engine vehicles. They have the familiar Ford engine cover inside too.

The other Ford CMP based Aussie armoured car was the less than successful Rover, built on both the 134 1/4" and 158 1/4" chassis, then there was the and the Ford Dingo scout car which was not a CMP but used MH transfer case and axle on an interesting cut and dropped chassis layout.
