Another Australian Maple Leaf truck has been for sale a while, but the cab looks odd, almost like a Bedford cab? As an aside, read some of the names on the door of this truck and the dealer's plaque, and then read about Walla Walla in THIS THREAD

An Australian Maple Leaf Parts Catalog was available (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CHEVROLE...AAAOSw~Wtbkd1r), but not sure if it shows any of the military versions.

The Maple Leaf truck mentioned in post #18 by in the now non-active link to the old MLU site is currently being given a freshen-up for the upcoming Back-to-the-Track Rally. Because that link is lost, I'm re-posting some of the old pics here, but we've lost the great write-up on this truck.

Might have to get some update pics of how this truck looks now?

Its a standard GMH cab, these were fitted to both Bedford and Chevrolet trucks and utes 1937 to 38.
