These are just part of a great collection.
The colonial cabs are certainly different (note the roadster dash when used with the car fronts).
One thing however usually the colonial cabs have very small doors and getting in and out can pose a problem unless you are paper thin.
 
Don't ya just love those Colonial Cab's!!!

Is the colonial cab the green pickup in the last photo? I’ve never heard the term “colonial cab”.
That collection is unbelievable!!!!.....Love the ‘51 Ute...I’d like to see that in person.....I can hear the gears grinding now...me trying to shift that truck “left handed”.....Thanks for posting!!.....Mark

Tony, I just came to this post and see that you had posted some pics of your dad's truck here. I was thinking in some previous FB posts, maybe several years ago, you had purchased a 35 or 36 pu here in the States that you were planning to send to your dad. Is that now also kept with this collection?
 
Didn't notice any station wagons. Were there wood bodied wagons imported into Australia/New Zealand? Considering the dry climate there should be survivors. Bill
