Default Unusual 4x4 Dodge Truck

This truck is currently on Gumtree in Toowoomba, Queensland

Pretty rare conventional Dodge with four wheel drive. What is it?

https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wyre...tem/1156250788

Is it actually a Dodge? Looks more Marmon Herrington with Australian Right Hand Drive and quarter windows? But the cab and pointy bonnet/hood on the back says 1939/40 Chevrolet??

I can only see one image on the add, but the side vent looks very Aust Chev to me.

Dodge? All wheel drive? Diesel?
I think he's posted the wrong photo!
Agree with you Mike, 1/4 vent window, kicker type side vent = Australian Chev.
Front axle appears to be 5 stud, barrel roller (heavy) type. Wheel seems to have been installed without the doubler plate as you can see the extra hole between each stud for rear axle, ten stud fitment.

It looks like a 39/40 Chevy 1.5ton.
