Old Holden Adds

Yes I've seen them, nice to see young women in LONG leather boots.. LOL

Mmmmm, that takes me back to my very early days. My grandfather bought one of the first model Holdens as our family car. Back then a trip to Perth was in part along a road that a lot of modern 4wds wouldn't see. We always traveled with an axe and a spade and the driver often had to use them. The trip took many hours, often not seeing another car, with deep wheel ruts and an occasional fallen tree to clear. No seat belts, no radio, no air conditioner, no indicators (window wound down to signal). It always got us to our destination safely, and was the first of a series of many Holdens as my grandfather and father traded every few years.

Uncle Des, were we lookin for an engine transplant in the 50series?? "21 and 6/10ths horse-power, producing 54 brake horse-power" that would be more than that yota donk puts out wouldn't it...

HI Des
Thanks for that post - I hadn't seen them before.
Being an old Holden fan it was pleasure to see all the old ads.
Cheers,
Glen

Thats great Des, Being a Holden hater from way back, it bought up many old memories and my lunch!

Take a look at the HQ's, they lost one or two into the drink I recall
