TR41

HOLDEN EJ Special Station Sedan

Released - July 1962

The EJ wagon is perhaps the most memorable of all Holden wagons from the Sixties era. Perhaps best of all, was the wide range of two-tone colour options available on the 'Special' wagon.

1974 World Cup Rally

LEYLAND P76

Released - June 1973                                                                                

If any legend deserves to dispel the saga of the ‘Anything But Average’ P76, it is Evan Green and John Bryson’s ‘Big Brut’. Coming in at thirteenth place overall in the 1974 World Cup Rally, it was their win against Ferrari’s, Jaguars and other European classics at the Targa Floria circuit in the mountains of Sicily near Palermo in Italy that spawned the Targa Floria P76 model variant back home in Australia!

Holden HX Panel Van

Buckskin Beige – Electrician Van

Released July 1976

With the advent of the tough new emission laws ramping up to full force, the HX series refinements were cosmetic externally but hugely significant under the bonnet. Though they were less powerful than previous models, the wagons and panel vans still proved a hit with tradesmen across the country and remained their preferred choice until the early nineties when Japanese vans like the Hi-Ace with their easy side access became the norm.
