Wy should a radiator need 2 filling points

Your guess is as good as mine, Maurice. Maybe it's a cab13 rad retrofitted to a cab 11 as you say.


I put Bill's picture in Google picture search to see if it appears on other websites and found it here:

http://www.41afdva.net/Fotos_41%20RVA.htm

This site shows another picture of a (the same?) cab 11, although the picture is mirrored. I corrected the orientation of the picture and attached it to this thread. C15 Cab11.

That picture is definitely a Chev and it has that hole in the rad cover.

.... and the artillery piece is a 25-pdr fitted with a muzzle brake, so a British (or Canadian?) manufactured/supplied weapon, not Australian. Not sure if the Brits were using 25-pdrs with muzzle brakes in late 1941/early 1942, but if not (as I suspect), then this item must have been supplied to the Dutch later in the war or post-war. The Australian Government transferred a lot of equipment to the RNEIA in 1945-46, but this 25-pdr was not part of that, as Australia did not start fitting muzzle brakes to towed 25-pdrs until the early 1960s.

If it's the same truck, then it's at a different time. The truck shown in the second photo has it's superstructure.

And it has a different length wiper blade

Again, my friends, thanks for all of the help.

I have identified it as a C15 2WD based on what I read here, I hope it was correct for my Indonesian mate.
