Question C60 Service/Employment History Tracing

Hi All,

As a rabid Signals collector I usually only lurk on this board but I now find I need assistance. Of course it's with a Sigs vehicle.

The Canadian Military Communications Museum is now refurbishing a C60 Command High Power that was recently 're-discovered' in a poor condition from being displayed outdoors. We are seeking to establish if at all possible what unit(s) the vehicle may have served with during the Second World War and even after that if at all possible. As this is a new area for those of us involved we're looking for assistance with any known details or suggestions on where we'd go look or otherwise go about finding answers.

What we know:
WD (as found painted): CL423707 (see pic)
no evidence of tac or formation signs

From the data plates (see pic)

On Plate 1
Chasis: C-60448-M
Cab: 13
Chassis Serial: 2844335554
Engine Serial: PR3868621
Order No: LV 327
Date of MFG: Dec 21-42

On Plate 2
Vehicle Model: C-60448-M-GS-9

On Plate 3 (pretty standard I would think)
Spare Parts List: 197
Maintenance Manual: MB-C1

So, if anyone can help us trace the path of this vehicle from factory to now I'd love to hear from you.
