Wireless set is either a Ack or Charlie set...... a obsolete set still in use by the looks of it , late 1930s.

Default Utes in the Middle EAst

Looks like a Morris C8 Portee ? A number of these (around 30) are found in the AWM 126 books (some were disposed to Lanes Motors Melbourne, the Morris dealers). A few survivors have been found here in Aust. but usually the Portee body is missing. Used to be one in Kilmore wreckers sitting upside down , the whole yard was scrapped. A friend had two of these but he decided to pass them onto somebody else, a NOS engine was found at Hughes yard, Coburg. The scene could be a Vichy French airfield in Syria ? Seems such a strange scenario, but Australians were fighting Vichy French troops in Syria.
