Cab 12 roof weakness

I believe all C60L cab 12 in Australia were brought back to Australia from the Middle East during the war as only ford cab 12's were ordered by Australia. If you notice most chev cab 12's don't have Australian roof hatches.

Thanks, Max.
That would explain why we have examples of C8 and c15 cab 11/12s, but very few early Fords apart from the F60L cab 12s.
The exceptions would be things like cab 11 F60L and the occasional cab 12 gun tractor, all of which are extremely scarce.
As for roof hatches, any Chev cab 12s with them might have had roof swaps, or retrofits.
