Default Was it a Staff Car - 1940 Chev

Hi All,

We have recently purchased a 1940 Chev sedan, the previous owner believes it was ex Military. It's painted green, but the previous colour is showing through which looks possibly a bit more military green. the paint code is 253 MD GRN
It was on VIC rego CP642
On the firewall it has number 4012.M.2686
It has been repowered with a Blueflame engine sometime in it's life.
Basically everything else is original.

Is there someway we can identify if this was indeed a Staff Car or some served some sort of military role?

We tried doing some searches but without a chassis number (yet unable to find) and engine change out has made it difficult to find anything.

If anyone can offer some assistance would be much appreciated.

Regards

John and Jess Mackie
