My vote is the third from the top raw left and right images. If anybody is interested in it:)

The original work paint scheme may worth reproducing if has any santimental walue to you. Or may be bringing memories to others and you like to please those folks. There may be a variation of that approach as I finally decided to do with my R-model. I kept original appearance in general (the color and colors of stripes) but modified it and made more complicate. And switched to metallic. That was made after I learned many people knew the truck in its older days but that look appeared too simple and uninteresting to me.

Dunno why the Australian ones had 4 headlights, thinking it might of legal reasons to get the lights at a legal height

Id say your right Paul.If you look at our Cruiseliner you'll see headlights not spot lights mounted in the bumper.this is to comply with Euro regulations on headlight height.The original headlights are too high for full beam so two full beam only lights were placed in the bumper......

I really liked it as far as work  plenty of storage plenty of power 350 E6 9 speed Fuller 70 mile an hour big sleeper  AC did not blow out worth a shit. I had to chop a hole in that middle console plastic and  put a vent in the middle that and then it was blowing right up in my face where I needed it.
