Tony,
I've come very late to this thread, but....
"Before anyone says... "that's not khaki no3" I can assure you this colour has been painstakingly matched to an original sample from the truck that was not exposed to fading.
So we can assume you used a sample from a position between panels? This does not take into account that the individual parts were not 'overpainted' in Australia, but the truck was overpainted with KG3 and the disruptive colour after assembly in Australia by the contractor. The paint sandwiched between panels is generally not a good indicator of the exterior vehicle colour in Australia.
Given the date of production of the vehicle, and the ARN, can I ask:
What pattern the flooring is, and the thickness of the floor inside the cab?
Does the roof have a roof hatch? If so, is it welded or bolted in?
Does the cab lower rear panel have a 'w' or an inverted 'u' shaped strenthening rib? Is there a small disc welded to the rib located on the left side?
Were the cab roof to cab rear panel bolts Whitworth (ie not UNC sized heads)
Does the engine number also appear stamped on the upper right hand chassis member, adjacent to the front cross member, or is this area blank?
My F15s were always fun to drive. The last one had an up-rated diff centre which gave it respectable road speed, too.
Regards
Mike C
