The Ford Cab 13 which you have pictured has the same cab regardless of model (ie 4X2, 4X4, 15cwt, 30cwt, 60cwt) so the 4X4 cab will fit the 4X2. There are differences between the Ford and Chev 13 cabs though so it would pay to stick to Ford parts.

Rear original trays are very hard to get though so if it is repairable you are better to keep what you have even though it is an Aussie cab and Canadian rear tray you have pictured as Keith said.

To be a bit pedantic there are small differences in the floor plates in the rear of the cab between the F15, F15A and F60L but these parts are interchangeable.
Where I mentioned it has an Australian cab there are also quite a few differences between that and the Canadian one but either will of course fit.

That one looks like it has an unhealthy band of rust around the rear cab join.
