From the rear view it seems to me your truck is not a short wheelbase tractor unit. If you view the photo taken from Barts book the rear wheels are just behind the fuel tank where as the photo of yours shows that the rear wheels would be further back.
My guess is your truck is one of the searchlight tenders as shown in the AWM photos or a similar bodied GS truck and not a tractor unit.
Can you get the full ARN off the bonnet as this may lead you to it's original use?
