180718 Melbourne 'Age' - Yarra Valley, truck.
Can we identify this one? The truck is over 35 years old, but the photo isn't, so I have placed it here.

Think it's a Commer Superpoise from the 1940's

The Cab certainly looks like the S model Commer . Wheels could be a 1927 Buick. Kav

Forum and Facebook HCVC homed into Commer fast. One clinching post: Q15 (16 in wheels) rather than Q25 (20 in wheels, and dual). Were both of these marketed as Superpoise?
Years nominated are mainly 1948-49, but the model continued to 1951.

Here is a great blog, buts its extensive photo album has no captions. A red one in about 15th spot, and a green (from Whitton, NSW) at ~100th.

Those wheels wooden be any good on that truck!

I'd rather have tools that I don't need, than not have the tools I do need.
