How do you explain "chassis model C15441" on the data plate?

Sorry Hanno. I used "Read new posts", and came into the discussion at the bottom of page 6 and replied before I noticed that others had more kindly pointed out the discrepancy.

Who can explain Chev reasoning? It's a mystery why they (or DND perhaps?) would rate the C8AX as a 15cwt. Perhaps some HUP/HUW owners could share what their plates state. The real clue is the Chassis Serial, with 8448 ID'ing the C8AX.

You raised a good point, possibly NZ was looking to procure 15-cwt trucks, and only the 8-cwt chassis was available, so GM relabelled it as a 15-cwt?!?
