Looks like an interesting truck , possibly loaned to U.S. Army. Returned to Australian Army worn out.
Mike C might comment on what the notations mean. Ken

What notations are you referring to, Ken?
This truck has been for sale for some years, with the price slowly falling. Seems to be getting close to good value now. |

The numbers and letters in the left hand page are what I am referring to.
The USA I assume means US Army and the COD at the RH end of the line would usually mean cash on delivery, but if they gave the trucks back, in theory there would be no payment. I put my glasses on and I see there is possibly a date 30.03.42 . I thought the price would be okay for a spares truck. Plus another $600.00 to get it to my place. Ken

The other thing I just noticed was that there are UK order 907 and UK order 889 trucks and when you get over to ARN 51720 my truck, I see that they mix the 2 orders together.
ARN 51567 a USA truck and 2/107 AGT company veteran wasn't sold off until 16/5/56. Ken
