Default door markings

I came across an old RCAF cab that looks like it probably came off a snow tractor. The guy that has it says the vehicle had rubber tracks and it wasn't a Cletrac so the Snow Tractor is the only other one I could think of and it looks like it's laid out right.The markings on the door are:

RCAF 1474
21-537
PA

The PA will stand for Prince Albert but can anyone help with the rest?

Cletrac it might be, I recall we had one of these at our airport may still be there, it looked like a small between a Cat D2 and D4, same RCAF and Yellow, had rubber pads for use on the tramac, the boys used it as a taxi to get around as the roads where to rough for a rubber tired vehicle.

This photo on ebay looks like it would be the same basic design but a different model of crawler.
