chris40 ◊ 2008-11-08 08:58	This is actually an A50-based 10cwt pickup. The A60 nzcarnerd mentions had a slightly different grille, shallower and IIRC incorporating the indicators.
Sunbar ◊ 2008-11-08 10:43	1957 Austin A55 ½-Ton Pickup As chris40 said the later A60 had a full width grille plus chrome trim on the sides. From February 1957 onwards. -- Last edit: 2008-11-22 15:32:00
