Hello Richard,
Thank you for posting the younger version of my 1940 truck. It is amazing how much the two trucks changed within a year of manufacture. My truck does not have the sprung brush-bar or a hatch in the roof. Plus different rims on the wheels. That truck looks like one that I think Max owned - the geography looks similar to the Yass area. If it is the same truck it is now in a big shed in Mitchell in the Australian Capital Territory and owned by the Australian War Memorial. Kind Regards Lionel
