found the photo below in the same batch as the CMP wireless truck I posted earlier which leads me to believe it may be the interior of the same truck.

looking at the wooden lockers and narrowness it could be the correct one.

The set is a Australian STC W.S. 109 , total production of these was around 1500 units from 1939 to 1942. These sets are relatively scarce now but there are a few examples to be found if you are lucky. I have successfully used one of these sets on air in the AM mode between my location and Adelaide, a fair distance. The transmitter has provision for either a xtal frequency or the VFO. Unlike many other sets, the internal layout allows for easy access for repairs of the receiver and transmitter .

Change of subject: I did have a 1944 RAF manual for the MW Bedford fitted with a house type body . In a moment of madness I gave the manual to somebody..can't remember who.
