Default C15A answers

Shipped as chassis components, cab completely built by GM-H as was the rear body. WO = War Office and 8 is the designation for a C15A with a locally designed and built GS body. The cab was fitted with an AALMG mount which bolted to the left side of the cab which you can see in the photo. The M in the chassis serial denotes Melbourne factory.

What a great looking vehicle!

ID tag looks slightly different......did Holden assembled trucks have a different ID tag or did they use tags from OShawa/Regina........

Numbers are also printed from the front instead of rear embossing......

Strange to see WO 8 on the tag....... unless ?????????

Just trying to learn.

Cheers
