Default 28444

That's better, 8444 is the GM code for a C15A, the roadster cab is the sunshine roof. The earlier 8443 was for a C60L, or 158" wheelbase. So your corrected chassis number will need to be discovered in AWM 126 to find out it's original configuration. Most were fitted with the Australian No2 or 2A GS rear body which itself had a number of different fit outs such as Office for example.
So hold your horses on the AALMG bit - many were fitted with that mount on the LH side of the cab for a bren gun. Tony's information was based on a different chassis number.

There was a Polsten version of a C15A but yours is not yet confirmed.
