F15 Identity, History? 59888

[Keith Webb]

I had a look through the photographs I've taken of the army registration books but don't have that number block. In any event that won't tell you a lot except where it was first issued, what type, tyre size, engine number and usually disposal details and the date it was disposed.
What I can tell you is if that data plate was on your vehicle it was one of the Canadian imports (rather than with the Australian partly built cab and body). It should have the Canadian rather than the Aussie railway plate floor.

Thankfully the number was repeated at an angle across the right vent and I'm pretty sure the first number is a '5'.

Thanks
