Hi Kevin,
It could be that your chassis was a GS truck which was shortened, or a Pre-heater truck which was rebuilt for another role, including the replacement of the gearbox with PTO. I think the former is more likely than the latter.
I have seen other ex-MVs which had their chassis bobbed when they were converted to garage break down trucks, for example.
