You're quite correct, Hanno.
General Motors-Holden built the entire cab for the cab 13 models which is why it has more local peculiarities than Australian assembled Fords such as the different door pattern, rectangular cowl vents (they used an existing pattern), windscreen frames, floors and many other details. I'll do a page one day comparing Canadian and Australian trucks.
