Doors drilled for data plates are rare in Australia - Australian biolt Fords and Chevs didn't have plates on the doors, so yours are probably from a Canadian built truck. To see whether the whole cab was Canadian, have a look at the floor. Adot and dash pattern floor is Canadian, diamond pattern Aussie. Another feature is (at least on earlier Canadian Fords) the windscreens don't open to 90 degrees.
As for serial numbers this can be difficult. Have you rubbed back the front shell for army registration?
