Not really Pat I just know of one that was sold new to a fella at Narribri I think it was and it was standard from the factory
We have visitors staying in the spare room so give me some time like a few weeks when the room is free and I'll have a ganda and see if I can track down any info

Andy's Autos in Cambellfield had an 8V53 in an old Diamond T tow truck that had been kitted out with customised front panels...kind of like a hybrid R190 and Diamond rolled into one ??

...it was sold only fairly recently (last 5 years) so she'll be out there somewhere....
