Looks like the sliding window pieces for the rear window in the cab, a crank handle (not the one with the socket), rear mudguards and battery clamp (the one on the right).

Thanks Keith.

So does that mean there was no glass in the rear window or just plates? The mud guards seem to be bolted together for some reason, is the crank handle the correct one for the cab 12? Thanks again for the feed back

Yes, that's right but not all cab 12s had even that.
You'd need to try the crank handle and then see if the mudguards fit the body from Hugh.

Default Sliders

I don't know whether they all had steel sliding panels or only some were equipped... I have never seen glass there as an original factory fitment, but sometimes this was done in civvy life.

Shane My cab 13 didn't have the sliding plates it was fitted with a canvas flap screwed to the back of the cab above the window. There is no evidence left on the cab to show how it was tied down, there are two hooks where the canvas was screwed to the cab that straps were hooked to too hold the rolled canvas up. Eventually I will fit glass.

Robert, I think all the Australian cab 13 Chevs had canvas as did Fords.
