If it's 1942, it would have had a 2C1 box on it. The other two were later developments. 1942 likely didn't have a spare tire either. This is for a Cab 13. If it's a Cab 12 it would be a 2B1 box since I've never seen a picture of a Cab 12 with a 2C1.

Arn
Finally pulled my finger out & took a photo of the ARN. Should be able to track down the vehicles history.
I'm fairly certain the original colour is Desert on this truck as well.

Engine #?
The engine number, which was the serial number, will identify the year.

OK I have an answer sort of
By chance the page your F15 is on is one I have photographed in the AWM 126 series.
http://gallery.me.com/oldcmp.net/100...12677780380001 There was a 'Q' to the left of the entry (not shown in the picture). This indicates a Queensland delivery but as you can see the information is fairly basic. Looks like it was taken on charge in 1942 which is borne out by the engine number 3G43973F. The entry in red is to whom it was sold after it's army service which is the Ford Motor Company, SAN = Sales Advice Note. Hope this helps but it looks like it was a standard delivery. Shame the records don't show more, but that's about it for the surviving records. Amazing really after 68 years we have this much.

In fact it was both at the same time!!!
