On 29 November 1948, 1200 people, including Prime Minister Ben Chifley, watched an ivory colored motor car appear from behind silver curtains to the strains of a ten-piece orchestra and enthusiastic applause.
The car was the first Holden, destined to become Australia's first successfully mass-produced car.
This first Holden, designated the 48-215 and fondly know as the FX was a six-cylinder four-door, six-seater sedan. |
