UK Comets not normally found with the long-door LAD cab, but Australian built versions may be different. Also bodies for specialised applications, fire engines etc. could have not standard cab-chassis configurations.

Model still to be identified. dsl wrote Ever tried getting four-legged trousers in modern outfits?? They just don't make them anymore. Extra legs, Australia - so that's where a certain entertainer got his idea from.
