unusual dodge
A 1939 or 40 aussie Dodge ute with soft top ...this is the 116" wheelbase .. light commercial chassis ..not sedan car . I also owned one of these for 10 years ..a 46 model with the closed cab, not rag top . It could be a Fargo with that grill .. the 46 was similar ..but with the headlights spaced out more towards the guards .
Very unusual to see the rag top on one of these . Mike

Models
My parts list i.d. charts suggest that the De Soto was either a DE1 or DE15, US-sourced, 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton. This from memory as I have put my papers away!

Nice
She's a very attractive looking vehicle. Almost a touch of the 'Stuebakers' about her.
Hope someone restores this to original military specification.

That's a '39 grille
Could have been used later down your way, but out of production in the US and Canada by September 1939.
