they will be a retrofit Bob as all the 12 cabs had the square guage cluster

The diamond may indicate a armoured unit ..my first C8, a cab 12 , from 1981 , had the same diamond on it ..plus the 1st Aust. Armoured Div sign on the cowl. Z4544 was the reg. prefix too .

You are certainly dragging them in ..where you been fishing ? I see it has correct wheels , at least two .
