Default Ford mod 1940, probably Australian (?) on Eastern Front

Hi,
As I can see this forum covers mainly commonwealth vehicles, so it's may be you can give some advice about origin of this Ford
Basically It's right-hand-drive Ford model 1940,
however it has door with 3 pressed rows (sorry, i don't know official term for these) which is typical for US models 1938/39 and Australian 1940.
As i can see from various restoration articles, door from 1938/39 cab fully fits 1940-42 cabs, so it can be just a result of repair.
On the other hand, i can see such combination of cab & door on Australian-made trucks.

Did anyone except Australian subsidiary produce such combination ?

What i wonder - if it's Australian, how it could appear on Eastern Front (see Soviet ML-20 cannon and C-60 or C-65 tracktor in background) ...
