Hi from Sunny North Qld , Australia ID Please

Barry,

the late David Hayward registered a lot of Chev chassis and engine numbers. Most of his research can be found on our forum, but it is also displayed here:

If you scroll down to "1942 15cwt 4x4" you will find two trucks very close to yours. Both were assembled in Melbourne.

2844400652M ENGINE # WR3,860,226 [MELBOURNE-ASSEMBLED]
2844400679M ENGINE # WR3,860,220 FEBRUARY 24 1943 [MELBOURNE-ASSEMBLED]

I agree with Grant on the winch. If the owner says it's a C60L or C15A, than it could also be a rare C60L with winch retrofitted with a C15A cab.

WO 15 is Battery Staff Wireless, a C15A with an Australian 2 or 2A body, definitely the winch is an add-on.

Also not all gun tractors had the 6" steering ends, in fact most if not all of the deliveries of those chassis to Australia were in 1942 before the 6" steering ends were introduced.
