This Autocar was registered in Australia as VH-BYV on 10 October 1955. It was withdrawn from service in February 1982, but restored to the Register in November 1992. It was withdrawn again in September 1997 but restored and re-registered VH-NVY(3) on 16 August 2012. It's painted in a fake scheme representing A11-300, one of two Autocars delivered to the RAN in 1949.
