Reminiscing about Cars

With a selection of Holden ad's from 1954 through to 1973, we reminisced and remembered Holden cars and cars of that era. We shared stories about road trips before seatbelts, first cars, price per gallon of fuel and all things driving, back in the day when men opened car doors, sisters were chaperoned and wives were chauffeured!


Here are some of the memories found:

“I never liked Holden cars. I worked for GM. We made Austin cars. Now that was a good car. We made 125 of them a day!”

“Dad had one of the first Holden's rolled off the line in Melbourne.”

“I had three brothers to drive me around. Mum didn't want me driving cars.”

“When we got married, my husband did all the driving, but once I got a licence, it was all me.”

“Dad had a burgundy car. He was so precious about it, that it was no pleasure to drive in at all.”

“Yes, I had a Holden Torana, 1973. It was mustard yellow!”

“I liked the Holden's, especially when they started making the sporty ones.”
