Magnificent shots!
The one of the Macks with trailers was taken on the North-South road - if you can get a copy you should read Allan Smith's Convoys up the track. I interviewed Allan on the Year of the Studebaker DVD.

This truck has an American cab similar to the lend lease chev,s that came to Aust during the war but this is the first I have seen with with the big single tyres 10.50x 18 , the tray is the std tray that was fitted to GMC Chev Studebaker etc.
The front bumper is also different from the Aust built cab. I wonder if the wheels were fitted for local ( Aust ) conditions. Good pic,s . Regards Jim S.
