Hi Peter,

good spot, this would be true as the early engine cowling is clearly seen on the picture from remowing the WOT6 top roof. This means the whole early dash set-up would be the same as on WOT8. But looking at the picture you can see that the scoop front vents are introduced already whilst the engine cowling it still old style. I guess on the turn in production there would be lots of mysteries like this. They would use whatever was left on stock before introduction of the new type.

Thinking of it again, it is very strange that the later WOT8s were mounted with the scoop style vents but on your picture of the NZ army truck iwhich is obviously WOT6, it still has the early round type vents. Does not make much sense to me at the moment .
