Hi Rich,

I am 99% certain that the truck in Pics 1 and 2 is a Morris Commercial MRA1, as you say. The picture is really too small to get detail from, but going on the registration letters, BF fits with a Morris, the Humber used later letter groups.

regards, Richard

Thanks Richard,
Most dissapointed to find that the only listed Humber photos in the Australian war museum are in fact a Morris.
Finding it very difficult to get any info at all on the Aussy Humbers, but will keep digging.
