It's not a Holden-built C15A either which makes it pretty unusual in this country.

Hanno if you count the wheel studs I think it could be a C8

Max,

Seems you´re right, I had not noticed the six wheel studs yet - the chassis model C15441 on the data plate had me fooled.

Could this be one of those C8AX´s imported from new Zealand into Australia after the war? It being a C8AX should also explain the Canadian-built cab.

Interesting stuff you guys have down there!

Yes the data plate got me too... I think you're right, a C8AX. Cropping up everywhere here.
