"Order no LV 309" is listed as a contract placed by the Canadian government as CDLV 309 - see the full list of C8A contract here: Chevrolet Heavy Utility contracts. CD stands for Contract Demand, LV is thought to stand for Land Vehicles.
Here are two known serial numbers from that contract:

• 2844515234 ENGINE # FR3838709 L.V. 309 AUGUST 14 1942 [C-HU-441-M-WIRE1] Z 65-479
• 2844515470 ENGINE # FR3866568 ORDER L.V. 309 NOVEMBER 17 1942

I have not seen this type of data plate before. Are they copies of the original ones? The second plate should not be on a C8A, as the info relates to a C15A 4x4 truck.
