Not a bad old film
There's some good video's with these style Inters in them featuring the CMF (what it was called before the Army reserve came about)

The Army trucks were specified to be 95% Australian content ,and the first ones the only non Australian content was the steering CV joints that were made by Vickers AWD in England ,and very similar to the same bits in the R model Bedford 4x4s........I dont think the latest trucks would be 9 1/2% Australian content.
