Default DCA emblem?

The winged emblem above the rear wheels on Tommy's first picture looks very much like that used by the Department of Civil Aviation or DCA as was.
Normally the emblem was applied to the front doors of their vehicles.
I don't know if the RAAF used a similar marking, I doubt it.

You are correct David, DCA used them post war.

Great find
Love seeing the more unusual variants
Hopefully end up with someone that will restore it back to original .
