Thanks very much, Mike. I'll see what I can find out. I'm in discussions with the owner, who is quite helpful and friendly. He has restored a similar vehicle, and picked up the Chev for parts. It's practically complete, though, and appears to be largely rust-free. I believe it spent a lot of time away from the coast.
It'd be interesting (but probably hard to establish) how much of Australian 1940 Chev production was for military use?
Thank you, gentlemen, for your input and assistance. I do enjoy the learning that I'm gaining at MLU.
Cheers,
Matt
