You are correct Mike, it was a small Chevrolet...the post war design for a new small Chevy called the Cadet, that had been abandoned.
When Holden went over there and saw this, it was decided to use this as our 'first' car.
Much like Holden 'Australianising' the Opel Commodore in 1978.
The first Australian designed Holden was the FE in 1957.
