The lights look the same as the ones on my Cletrac but the mounting brackets are different so I'm guessing something US made.

Gentlemen, please be more specific with your replies. Wild guesses like these will not suffice!

So very close, Cliff. While the Marmon-Herrington 4x4 LP Gun Tractors WERE fitted with the Roadster Truck cab, the cabs were also fitted to some 4x2 1 ton Vans, as in this case.

Ryan, the Roadster Truck cab is uniquely Australian, being designed and built by Ford Australia, Geelong. Probably a bit before your time, eh?
