anykindamopar Posted May 23, 2022 Author Share Posted May 23, 2022 Yes correct .It is a RHD. Thanks for those 2 links, it comes out as a '42 and by the remnant numbers on that tired old tag can only be a WF32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1939_Buick Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 1942 in NZ highly likley is ex Military. Easy to check the engine number. A chance it has been changed in the last ~80 years. https://www.t137.com/registry/help/otherengines/otherengines.php What are the intentions with it?

anykindamopar Posted May 23, 2022 Author Share Posted May 23, 2022 What are the plans? Making it mobile again might present a challenge. I have to be able to tie it to a registration plate. I'm hoping the engineering company family members can do that. Otherwise it 'll likely be a garden ornament. Mrs will love that!!! I do have a surplus 245 Aust hemi engine with a bell housing to fit that G/box. I'm not into flat heads. Maybe keep as a farm truck..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
