1942 last chevrolet car

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

I am starting a new thread about the very last 1942 Chevrolet cars, as we know that the last Ford of Canada car was a Mercury Fordor but no date of its completion is known.

The last civilian Canadian car was built in Oshawa in 'February 1942'...the exact day I am not yet certain about ..possibly and no later than the 10th. One source suggests that US Mercury production actually ended on February 10th 1942, the order having gone out on the 1st from the Government so that makes sense. On that basis I shall say that Chevrolet finished 'by the 10th'. However it could have been as early as the 2nd.
