Yes it looks like a C4 but its definitely a CS8 - I had a look over it . For some strange reason, many of the CS8's found over here have the later style cab with half doors and the full windscreen , don't know why this is the case.
Maybe these later cab examples were the last production run of CS8's , just before the changeover to the C4 .
Both these pics are of CS8's , the barn find one was taken at Ballarat airshow in 1985 . VMVC member John Carroll found this vehicle in a shed , hard to believe it was original and running, he did paint it though !It's now in the Moama museum run by Ian Ledwidge
