Thanks Mike. Is the one you've mentioned a green one, based in Seaford?
All indicators point to it being a fairly straightforward process. But, as we all know, the indicators are often way off the mark! Time will tell... Cheers, Matt

Have you got it home yet, and have you had a chance to locate the chassis number? We look forward to some more images.
The AWM also has an example. It is restored and stored at the Annex. Mike C

Hi Mike,
Not home yet, it's in South Australia, and transport is being arranged. He's a retired gentleman, so I haven't pressed for the chassis number. Would it be on the LHS chassis rail towards the front of the vehicle? More pics to follow. Cheers, Matt

Hi Matt,
The chassis number is behind the front wheel on the vertical face of the left chassis rail. It should start with 40****. Mine is 40 308. There is a small gap between the 40 and the 308. The numbers are lightly stamped and about 5/8 inch high. Regards Rick.

Numbers
Matt
The Holden production numbers at Woodville . 1940 Standard sedan 1599 1940 Master sedan 2129 I think the Master has the independant knee front suspension . Interesting , they don't list any specific military sedans for 1940 but they do for 1942 . Maybe the military issued 1940 cars are included in those 1940 figures ? 1942 has 620 AMF deluxe sedan bodies listed . I suspect these are actually 1941 style bodies . 1942 also has a few refugee bodies assembled at Woodville , these were Chev , Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick and divimpro cabs whatever that is, all under 30 units each . The Fishermens Bend factory was mostly manufacturing 'special' bodies with Woodville doing the bulk of the actual mass produced bodies Mike
