According to the Dammann's 75 years of Chevrolet book at page 208: Quote In Australia, Chevrolet continued its one-model car concept, using the very stark Special styling for the exterior, coupled to a fairly plush interior. Since then, Australian Chevrolets have been generally the same as U.S. models, with a few exceptions. [Sic] But, since 1952, Chevrolet have continued in Australia as relatively minor line, retaining respect, but not being the sales leader that they are in the U.S. Based on Commander 57's finding, I would say this is just 1952 Chevrolet without the model name listed. -- Last edit: 2014-01-12 00:48:21
