Dave Hardway stated “the shrapnel damage that appears on the body with the early Cab/Chassis can be matched to the photo's with the later Cab/Chassis and to the Truck as it is today”.
So it seems the original body was converted and then transplanted onto the later chassis. A true Trigger’s Broom…

This photo just popped up on F/book. Is it the original or a copy. Says it was restored but school apprentices after being found in a scrap yard in NZ.

Rick, you judge it. Compare the front guard / fender.
There are two fair haired girls in the photo. The taller one being my mother, the one on the left, her sister Joan. The "truck" re visited the native schools on return. Its a shame the sign writing didn't follow the original. Can someone please turn the photos the right way up? Edit. Thank you Rob for turning them around in Post#157. The School Is the Okauia native school, on Douglas road out of Matamata. The number plate starts of with "Govt" This was fine for the first 9999 plates.

How about this colour photo taken from a slide of an Fordson NAAFI vehicle. The slides were taken by Brian Darrah in Cyprus in late 1950s. He was a member of the RNZAF Vampire squadron posted there.
31631AFE-0AB3-4EB2-9F9D-B9330FCC5246 by tankienz, on Flickr His other colour slides showing mainly aircraft are at https://rnzaf.proboards.com/thread/3...oloured-slides It is just possible to make out the side of a refueller painted sand colour in one photo but i can't see enough to hazard a guess of the vehicle type. |

Based in the little of the refueller seen in the photo, my first thought is the AEC 6x6 with cab looking like that fitted to the Matador. Model 0854 or 0856 chassis - I don't know enough about their numbering system to say...

Here's a postcard I just picked up off eBay. Barking Engineering was a shop near London that built mobile canteens for the British Salvation Army. From the looks of things, this canteen is probably circa 1940?
