Default Australian 1944 Pattern Cab 13

Australian 1944 Pattern cab, manufactured at Woodville, South Australia.

Note how the front clip and the seats are stowed inside of the cab. The asbestos lining of the engine housing can be clearly seen.

Mike Cecil commented:

"The image of the CMP cabs could be any of the assembly plants, but manufactured mainly at Woodville in South Australia. The two wider images with multiple vehicles are the vehicle reconditioning plant in Brisbane, Queensland."
