Year model clarification
Just to clarify my earlier post - I wasn't asserting that the SA discovery was one of the batch of 38/39 Holden bodied Ambulances - merely illustrating the point that Holdens were responsible for at least that many (50) Ambulance bodies early in the war.
I have a chart somewhere here (now where did I put that darn book ?) which illustrates each year model of Chevrolet commercial vehicles and ID's the front end sheet metal.
Without reference to the chart I won't hazard a guess at the SA vehicle's year model but it is clearly 1-2 years newer than the Holden Bodied Chev Ambulances pictured in Norm Darwin's work.
Despite the obvious difficulties it will involve, I'd still love to see the SA vehicle restored some day...
Cheers
