Hi Warren,
You have such good taste!
The 100 or so Humbers ordered by the Aust. Army were "badged" as Commers. The only difference is on the data plate which is found on the chassis behind the front left wheel, this has Commer stamped on it instead of Humber. In my experience they are called Humbers regardless. I would say that any imported by Archie Marshall in to WA in th 1960's would be stamped as Humbers anyway.
As for getting one, took me 12 years to find a nice one. Maybe 10 good condition roadable ones over here, they are very susceptible to rust as you will see if you go through the posts in this thread.
Nice one just sold in WA for $10500, thought it may have got a little more though.
If you want to do a restoration there are a few down Stawell (Vic) way that are saveable. If you are serious about getting a good one I can ask around.
You are more than welcome to have a drive of mine to see if it was what you really want, you just need to be travelling the Hume Freeway as you would go past our back fence.
Hope this helps
Rich.
