Not necessarily post war but certainly domestic.The DND number on the doors were of the second style that came out around 1943. Provincial plates were used on DND vehicles right up to about unification. The BO headlamps were contained in a small kit (tin in a wooden protector) and would be applied when needed. Domestically that would likely be just during exercise.
From the Cdn Army Manual of Maintenance and Lubrication:
Quote:
(c) Vehicles, other than motorcycles, will be numbered consecutively irrespective of type or year of issue commencing with DND number 50-001.
(d) Motorcycles will be numbered consecutively irrespective of type or year of issue commencing with DND number 2-001
