Could be but I think you'll find this is a direct Australian delivery, not an Ex-British one as witnessed by the locally fitted roof hatch. The manufacturer's serial is 7455, engine/chassis 2G 459412F. It seems only the later batches of Australian delivery F60L cab 12s had a S/M stamped on the data plate. Found S/M numbers I've seen on these cab 12s are usually S/M 2037 with one 2126 and Hugh Thompson has a plate from a cab 12 with S/M 2019 but unfortunately the truck was long gone which means we won't know whether it had a roof hatch or not. Happy as ever to stand corrected though!
