The VIN number you gave is for a 1942-45 WWII 3/4 ton 4wd built for the military.
If you look here you will find more information on the 3/4 tons:

That is a pretty late serial number, so it is most likely a truck that was built in 1944 or 1945, and becuase of that the number of models made are more limited.
I am not an expert on the late 1944-45 3/4 tons, but I think most trucks were WC-51, WC-52, or WC-64 by that point, as most of the other models (WC-55, WC-53, WC-54, WC-56, etc) had been phased out.
I hope this helps.
