Got ya.....just checked the picture in post 7 above and noticed the quarter vent windows. I suspose this would be more to what I should be hunting down, what is the model/make of that army truck?

Mick the 1941 was model YR and the 1942 was model MR. Both were similar and both were 1.5 ton (30cwt) conventional closed cabs and had a 132.5 inch wheelbase. BUT the one you want is the Holden Assembled and Holden built cab model. Main differences in the Holden built cabs were vents on the side of the cowl and the Quarterlite windows in the doors. The 1 ton models had the same wheelbase but were probably on 16inch wheels.

Hope this helps
