Default British Chevrolet trucks

I came across a newspaper advert for my 1940 Chevrolet utility. The advertising states " British Empire Chevrolet "

I found many more adverts for ' British Chevrolet ' trucks. These 'British' trucks and cars were actually manufactured in Canada, then were shipped to Australia where some Australian made parts were fitted, mainly bodywork.

So the Aust CMP connection has some preceding history.
