Have someone who might be able to get info from Ford Australia direct if not I will just put a match to the whole thing and start a new. (Joking)

have you looked at the right front frame rail my truck has the vin number stamped in the frame right behind the radiator support, an unless they had to modify the frame making it right hand drive the original factory vin should still be stamped into the frame in that spot. hope this helps.

Gday,
Yes I have looked there and under the cab on the chassis rail again nothing. There must be one somewhere (I hope) but until we pull the cab off and sand blast the chassis I am not holding out much hope of finding one.

All he means is that over here in the US we drive in the right lane with our steering wheels on the left. The mail trucks have the steering wheel on the right. That way mailmen can just pull over and step out of the truck without stepping out into traffic. And in rural areas where mail boxes are out by the road, all he has to do is drive up to the box and deliver the mail without stepping out of the truck at all.
