door
Off side door reads :
supplied by Australian Comforts Fund . An organisation that gave out sporting gear , amenities radios etc., to the Aussie servicmen during WW2 . The ACF logo , a six pointed star is visible . Would have had an interesting history , this truck .

A not so sad WOT6
Mike,
A timely post, as I am working on a WOT6 today. It is slightly later than one in your photos. Mounted with a Machinery Body, it has laid around for some years, with cab supports rusted out, but now been replated, engine and gearbox out for repairs, body off, etc. First pic is of how my friend bought it and second pic is a few weeks ago before we refitted the body.
