  1. GMH made a local Chevrolet ute a month or so after Ford. Apparently working on them at the same time. Earlier local coach builders created ute bodies on cars as simple as Austin Sevens. But wood and fabric not steel factory versions. Fletch at Shannon's came across a NSW chev collector with a paddock full of pre war local chevs. Quite a few of them utes.

  2. Holden was officially closed down on 31 December 2020. RIP Holden 1856-2020. Last few months even the dealer signage was ordered to be destroyed by GM.

  3. On 30/01/2021a rare HSV Maloo W1 ute sold for $A1,050,000 at auction. HSV build plate 29/12/2017. Followed by the highest VIN Holden sedan for $A750,000. Such is the fever for the rarest last of the line.
