I had a check of all known 1941 Model Chevrolet CMPs and suggest that the change-over is most likely to have been in amongst C-GT assembly, going by known sequential production numbers.
The CGT-based ones all had 10-50-20s.

Here's a pic of the F60L portee restored by John Belfield.

Here are the remains of one of the Kiwi Portees I photographed in 1986.
