1 Ton is disguise ? Military 109 6Cyl

ok I'm confused, saw this on flea bay. Where there UK army 109's with 2.6L engines? (Australian ones not included).

If military, with military chassis etc .. Is it an Army 1 ton ?

Tempted for the engine alone, panels look v straight

Its not got a military rear cross member but the seller alludes to a rear X member change which may explain. The engine isn't military (it would be painted duck egg blue). The sellers description looks quite honest. Its difficult to tell if its a genuine 1 ton. The fact the engine doesn't look original doesn't help but again there could be an explanation. There's something about it that's not right that I can't quite pin down. I looks military but somehow it isn't. The truck cab is not a military feature.

Not sure about a military truck cab and a 2.6. However if the v5 matches the numbers it's a good start. New chassis and a good overhaul then you'll have a decent vehicle.

Engines only ended up "Duck egg blue" after re-furb ....

Six pot bulkhead and engine BUT cant see any military commission plate,rear tub fill so no twin tanks,no six way lighting,Mili lights etc
Military/Combat chassis sits very much like a 1 ton chassis BUT has lots of detail chassis details and a low ratio box and different ratio steering (900x16 tyres on a six pot)
Could be genuine,could equally be a mix and match of bits done over the years ???

Chassis number and inspection of chassis would be the only way to really decipher what it is /was
