The chassis number fits in the series of surviving trucks or data plates I have on file, so the probability is this is correct.

Those clots at the Brisbane factory stamped the chassis code where they should have stamped WO38

There is another Brisbane built example, chassis 28442B00205 engine PR3887042 located at Yaven Creek.

Of the seven examples I have listed five were built in Perth, two in Brisbane.

Interestingly the next WO in the series, WO39 was also a tanker, the 400-gall water tanker version.
