Chevrolet Capitol Tray Top

History of this Vehicle:

The Chevrolet Capitol Tray Top has a 2.8L engine which produces 19kw (25hp) at 2000rpm.

The assembly of Chevrolets in Australia occurred as early as 1918 and by 1926 the newly created General Motors (Australia) Pty Ltd had assembly plants in five Australian states producing Chevrolet and other GM vehicles using bodies supplied by Holden Motor Body Builders. General Motors Holden was formed through a merger of General Motors (Australia) Pty Ltd and the troubled Holden Motor Body Builders in 1931. From 1949 Australian Chevrolets were locally assembled from components imported from Chevrolet in Canada although local production of the Coupe Utility body continued until 1952. The last full year of Chevrolet assembly in Australia was 1968.

There were approximately 680,000 of these vehicles built.
