Hi Joe,

I really don't know. I would think there is one since they have them on many of the other models. Maybe Chevy Nut or one of the other guys will know.

If I run across one and get my hands on it, I will post online with the rest of the manuals.

Joe, I have never seen one for sedan deliveries - I doubt if they would have had one due to the limited production.

I thank you for posting the 1938 specifications. I have been looking for several of them for years but they have not been available here in Aus to my knowledge.
If the pictures of the cab are accurate it appears Aus 1938 are the same as your 1937 models although both mine are early in each series. My 38 has timber frames in the doors but my 39 is pressed steel framed doors. Is this any indication for comparison with your models.

The US cabs are basicly the same for 1937 and 1938.Although not the same as 1937 the later 1936 cabs had all steel doors.The cabs were made by Chevrolet - not Fisher body as were the US passenger car bodies.I would suspect that the Austrailian cabs were made locally.

thanks Chevgene
I suspect my 31 is going to give me a headache. The 34 should be ok. Mostly the same as a car

I agree the cabs in Aus were made locally but highly suspected they werre made to the same specs as your models. Again you are right there is very little difference between what I have been told is 37 and my 38, in fact I think my 38 may have 37 grille and possibly engine cover (hood).
There is major changes made for 39 though, so much so that i doubt any of the body panels will interchange with the earlier models but maybe possible with later models.
