Hey, Mike.... Not exactly... I know that must've been a typo)
This truck features in several different poses and of course is the CGT #8 - it highlights the differences between the two manufacturers of this body design - the Chev has rolled sheetmetal joins where the Ford is butt welded... also the Ford fuel tanks have the fillers at the rear while the Holden built version (and I don't know why) has them at the front necessitating a small cut out in the crew door.
I think this is possibly the pilot truck.

This is the Ford - and does anybody know what the vertical locker on the rear quarter panel was designed for?
