Default Before anyone yes too excited

I think the 'No8" is a home build body, apart from the shape there's nothing to suggest No8 features in that rear body section.

The yellow one does have some vestiges of ambulance in it.

Keith, if not a gun tractor what about a radio van?
Howard, thanks for that, she was worried about spam.

Definitely not a radio van, it's a fabrication. Quite cool though in it's own way. Looks like the rear mudguards are made from CMP front mudguards (rear halves) reversed to give the full arch.

The chassis is most likely F15A.

Nicky has uncovered some paperwork from her father that refers to the truck as a F15A. Here's another pic.

I think Keith is spot on

Not a Gun Tractor but a F15A with fabricated rear using normal front roof line with a few original items put on to give it an authentic look
He has done a nice job. Looks good

The camper looks to have used a Australian No 2 Ford ambulance body if not the whole thing before modification

As to what they are worth is anyones guess .

Did you get any photos of whats in the rear of the F15A mockup ?

Hi, Andrew, no I have not seen what is in the back of the gun tractor.

An update from Nicky.
The yellow blitz has now been sold.
The gun tractor is for sale for $25,000.
