Hello all.

I am in Australia (SE QLD) and recently acquired a Chev truck. It has a Holden plate on it with the following information.

WB4M
Body C576
1400 Chassis
Series D

2520 pounds
5800 pounds

I was wondering if anyone could decipher the information. What year is it, I always thought it was 1942 for some reason that I can’t remember. All I know about the truck is it was used by the Australian Army in the Second World War. It is still painted green. My father bought the truck in 1974 to use on our farm. It was bought at a clearing sale minus driver door and continued to be used on our farm until the mid eighties like this. It was then parked partially undercover until now.

Can someone please point me in the right direction as to what year it is.

Thanks

Steve

For my Holden plated 54 Chev truck, I came accross a web site (may have been here on Stovebolt, it was a while ago), where from 1949-54 each year model was described with all its appointments/measurements etc. It showed what each year had on the truck for a particular item.
Maybe google something like this for the 40's era truck.
