It has a foreign URL address. Is this something GM made for another country or just a cut up mess. I'm not sure how you could even make something like this. If its real, it's worth a LOT.

It's a Holden bodied Chevrolet Ute... the real deal. Right hand drive which makes them a little less desirable on this side of the pond.

They were Austrailia only... from '36-52 as Chevrolets, then Holden made their own. Ford did them too... Here... spend half an hour on this thread! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=339810

How many were made? That's got to be a conversation piece. Photos?

I knew of a 37 or 38 (not sure which now) here in Goulburn but since the then owner passed on I dont know where the ute is now.
It was based on the 1/2 ton chassis and cab but the front of the box was also the back of the cab.
Tony
1938 1/2 ton Hope to drive it before I retire
