It looks like a basic cab that they used there are more trucks that look like they just built a platform with fenders and set a cab they already had on top.

Ok, I'll admit it - I had no idea what a Toro Dingo was - looked it up. He he, yeah that ought to handle it..........probably inside the sleeper.

This is a comfortable looking RSH, tin shanty shack. I doubt it has a inside crapper though,

That old truck looks like an IHC. I don’t think the builder of the shack part was worried about aerodynamics though

Looking at that tin cab top, I think that may be the first walk back RSH.

From the looks of that storm door, there just may be a bucket in the cab.

South of the border trucks--lots of'em like that. I gave up on permission for photos--my stuff
has been copied so many times.
