unfortunately, most of the original inner cabinets were gone

This white high roof van differs from the 5 original Colli high roof service vans.
First, as you say, it is 3rd series, & therefore '66. The 5x Colli vans were 1960.
Second, it is by Bonfanti, not Colli. Yoi can see the remains of the Bonfanti badge below the front door in front of the wheel.
So I do not think that it was used by AR Inc, but I might be wrong.
It would be nice to know what happened to this one after it was sold on eBay, probably in 2003 or 2004, & to get the chassis number.
Best wishes,
