No.
But can you show more photos, of each side? Maker's labels, which I see two of but can't read? How did you come by it?
First wild stab in the dark is a public address amplifier.

WOW that is amazing, and I didn't know Australian Sound Systems made radios

Interesting to see the innards, its possibly fixable. You would be surprised as to how much ex-MF stuff is around. I have ex military an Avo meter 7X; Wheatstone Bridge; Survey Altimeter; Frequency Counter; Wireless set 19 Genemotor (No cover), Philco Frequency Meter (Repaired). I also still have Grandfathers WW1 bugle and a photo of him & likely it, taken in France.
Its an interesting study, as to who made what, when we had manufacturing, especially during the wars. As I have said before Allied radio stuff was made all over the place and was not necessarily the same. The Germans made things all over the place but a lot of their's was modular service & made to a standard pattern, so that it really didn't matter who made the module, or radio, it fitted & worked and could be vultured from another radio if required.
There is a Military display October in this area (gone), but I know they have a place where a really good display of such equipment, could happen at it.

The original post is now 14 months old and from a one-time poster, so methinks we're not likely to see the innards from that source.
