Now that I do compare your Aussie Airborne photo with the other the crane truck is a LWB and not a modified SWB. Probably right about the windscreen too as the Aussie airborne GMC one's were just angle iron with the original opening GMC windscreen frame and glass bolted to it. To throw a spanner in the works though is the fact that the US experimented with LWB closed cab GMC's with their roofs removed as Airborne trucks before Melbourne altered the SWB one's.
