Maybe white represents the 10th Light Horse Regiment of WA?

With the skid strips they now have the formers and are happy to produce more upon request of course $'s will be involved. PM me if you want the details.

You were right about the signs Dave. "C" squadron of the 10 Light Horse did have Humbers (as well as Ferrets). There is one restored Humber from the 10LH in Perth and I shall endevour to make contact with him, there is a feature article in the last edition(issue 37) of the "Vintage Trucks" magazine about the Humber and some of its history with the 10LH.
