dsl ◊ 2023-08-21 21:50	Looks like a longer door so a Station Coupe (1022 made, 1949-52) with a second set of seats - more like a 2+2 bench than proper seating - which meant a slightly longer cabin, longer doors to give the rear access, and a shorter load bed. Comparison photos with the short door Utility Coupe (single row of seats, 717 made, also 1949-52) here, plus this one (see comments pic) and one on flickr. Both versions were sold in UK and elsewhere, so they were not exclusive to Australia although that was the main market, taking 60% of production.
