Here is the radiator top I mentioned earlier. I know it's speculation, but to me the black spot in Bill's picture is too dark to just be a shadow (compare with shown on fender) and has to be an actual hole in the panel. A hole which could provide access to a filler cap as in the pic attached. Hole, not factory, but maybe field/post war mod(?)

The rad top in the picture attached came from a French C15. The complete rad is the original from my C8.

I am still betting on a 4x2; I agree with Rob's comment on the drivers leg, but what settles it for me is the position of the rear wheel when compared with the lower edge of the body. A 4x2 shows the top of the tyre about level with the lower edge of the body, or even slightly above the lower edge; A 4x4 shows the top line of the rear wheel below the lower edge of the body.
