The Australian Army specified that they required their MCP vehicles ( Ford Chev Dodge Inter ) to be fitted with a opening windscreen , roof hatch , spring front number and other mods .
The locally assembled 1940 models did not have these mods but by 1941 the mods had come into local MCP production . I've seen brass opening inner windscreen frames on various vehicles , the 41 Plymouth army utes I had were examples.
That RAAF Dodge pictured would have been a British contract vehicle I would think.
