That looks like a good find Gord. The model 84-41 shown on the data plate is correct for a C30 (over the years I've seen quite a few data plates that looked like they might have been transferred from one vihicle to another so I'm always suspicious) and the data plate is in the style I've come to associeate with relatively early production. The serial number seems to be 1942 model year, civilian pattern instrument cluster all seem to fit together.
I am not so sure about assuming that near serial numbers would be of the same type completed vehicle as I'm not sure whether they waited to make bunhces of LLAT, Derrick, Engineer as groups. There have been photos shown of production lines with CMP and MCP mixed together that suggests grouping didn't happen all the time. Are there other features that might indicate yes/no for the LAAT variant?
