They were painted Army green for a start , as per the interior - the colour is on the tag.
Most of them had some kind of a canopy , and there are a few little bits and pieces that are unique to these utes.

i'm not sure about FB's but FX Army utes had a seat in the back that folded up against the back window wall.. The brackets for this are a giveaway. They also had a drip rail over the Windscreeen as opposed to the tops of the doors. Paul

On the body plate after 2106 is S4 which is the GMH code for army ute. Is the 324A for the number of utes made in Adel or Army utes in Adel, Finny, Steve do you guys have any other utes from Adel around the same number?
