I have a wartime Vic. Reg certificate for a Inter truck that was transfered to the DD around 1942.
Hi Mike,
The rego papers only show the people we bought it off and so forth, but we would like to try and find it's original history from the 40's onwards if possible.
Unfortunately we haven't had any luck from the AOMC, basically the engine number appears to have come out of a 1934 car; however it's a 1953 engine, so I'm a tad bit confused, so next step is to do an FOI from VIC roads and see if they have any extra info they might give us.

Thanks
