Default Now in South America?

These are the three "PE" contracts I now know of for that model:

4844413824 ENGINE # PR4,050,222 AUS CONTRACT PE-205-63 [NOW IN SOUTH AMERICA] JULY 13 1945
4844413849 ENGINE PR4,050,224 NO. PE-205-63 JULY 13 1945
4844420112 PE-211-103 APRIL 27 1945 [HOLDEN-ASSEMBLED]

Note two trucks, same order, 25 units between them, same date of assembly, engines two out! Amazing!

I imagined that it stood for Procurement Executive? Also that it was an Australian contract reference.
