A small number of these cars were assembled in Australia by General Motors (Holden) as standard 210 model 6 cylinder 4 door sedans, as was common for Chevrolet through the 50's and into the 60's. An even smaller number of equivalent cars in the 4 door hardtop design known as the Sports Sedan, were imported ready assembled as special orders.
This particular one was purchased by the current owner as a project car from California in 1986 and has been restored to original factory specifications, converted to an Australian right hand drive chassis with replacement firewall and dash.
