There you go then
1 and 5 look home made, 4 is a proper coach built job and 2 looks like a transplant from a standard 3 ton. All could be T110L or T222 based if short enough Number 3 is really rare in that it is an export chassis cowl bodied with Australian or Indian pattern locally built body. It isn't a T110L though

1 looks a British D60 ( rims ), 2 looks a civilian delivery truck conversion, 3 might be a light truck " woody " , 4 is very interesting, might be a bus conversion but those are mostly on 3 ton chassis. 5 got big rims so might be 3 ton REA truck ( look-a-like).
What I am looking for is the n° 4 on a long chassis with the 5 stud rims 7.50 x 20. Possibily build by Boyertown coach builder on a Dodge civilan chassis just before war production started in the Boyertown plant. Boyertown got a delivery body fitted for the 160 " chassis, body called S8 or SN8 . Body existed allso for the smaller 1 ton ( S 7 and SN7 ) . that body was later on used for the Dodge S7Ma 51 and S8Ma51 ambulances. For sure that body existed in 1941 -1942 for milk trucks and delivery purpose. I asked Boyertown for more information and I am waiting for the result. some pictures imagesCA7C50T2.jpg 131519251587541349_RmZqVCMT_c.jpg salvation army canteen.jpg freeland_dairyA_300.jpg bernard |

Quote:
The first one is a 1940 VF or VH civilian 1.5 or 2 ton, identifiable by the headlight position and grille trim Second one is same type - 1940 VF or VH civilian Third Salvation Army is a little odd, looks like a WK heavy duty 3 ton extra long wheelbase, 160" or more - does have the towel rail front bar normally found on Canadian trucks built for Commonwealth army. Fourth one, the milk truck, is a classic 1941-47 step-down milk truck on a WF chassis, maybe WF-32 To me, only the fourth one looks Boyertown and only the third one has a military truck somewhere in the basic structure.
