2112030602
2| type 2
21| type 2 panel
211| type 2 panel with build date of 1971
211|2| not sure what this "2" means. I'm fairly sure it is not the serial number as that should only be 6 digits
2112|030 602| this is the serial/chassis number

You sure?
Look at the front bulkhead (inside).. Is that yellow/orange under the sky blue?
Also, as these were either special purpose or commercial, I would have thought the colour would have been special purpose (eg: PMG red or RAAF Yellow)
or the commercial base coat which was always white..
