Hi
Just picked up a 1940 chev. will be putting it into olive drab colours as a staff car. Body wise it is good, engine and gearbox is out of car and in pieces. would like a running engine and box to put in car, original or possibly later blue flame motor. Anyone know of any, i am in the brisbane area Australia. Thanks Eben |

G'day Eben,
That looks like a pretty nice car. There are a couple of items which may point to it being an original staff Car. Have a look on the firewall under the bonnet. There may be a white painted number in the middle of the firewall. Mine has "AIF M15" painted in 1 inch letters. This is the original ARN for the car if it was a Staff Car in a former life. Of course if the firewall is repainted the same colour as the outside then there will be no number. Have a look at the 2 id.plates. mine has Khaki Green stamped into one of them. We use ours all the time for many old car events and love driving it. regards Rick.
