I agree...not a C8, but a C15A. Most likely 1941, not 1943.

Lovely find!

Papers must have been mixed up

Anyway, look for C15A parts, not C15. The C15 is the 4x2 version, yours is the 4x4 hence the "A". And the cab type is Cab 12. Show us a side shot so we can identify the rear body.

And that iTS 4x4 and not 4x2?

A stands for all wheel drive. Driven front axle makes it a 4x4: 4 wheels of which 4 are driven. A 4x2 has two driven rear wheels, non driven front axle.
