Does the C15 plate stil exist please with its data??
http://www.oldcmp.net/alberton.html#wo30
has a page with two C60S trucks, with very interesting datplates.
After checking the website again I noticed that I had the two 1942 Model C60S dataplates' information wrongly noted down. I have corrected them but note that the top one has the up to 1942 style of plate as used on myriads of cars and trucks, though without TRIM, PAINT and Canadian MODEL numbers. The bottom one is the later style, with information set out vertically. However the biggest surprise is that the top truck was to Order S/M 2127 and yet I have no information on this contract. It must have been a BRITISH contract for the supply of trucks to AUSTRALIA, BUT was it a diverted "SINGAPORE" delivery or an example of a contract to supply the Australian forces before Australian contracts were placed? The other query I have is that I am not sure that the Holden serial numbers are anything to do with the Oshawa ones or whether they were allocated by Holden's after assembly. I am militating towards the latter, and may therefore have to split all Holden-assembled CMPs from Canadian ones, just I have done with the NZ-assembled C8AX trucks and the South African one...they used the "X" codes plus a sequential number but Holden never used their allocation of the X codes....they relied on the Plant Code as confirmation of which of the five plants assembled which vehicle.
