Keats ◊ 2017-12-13 04:47	It's definitely not a Holden.
dsl ◊ 2017-12-13 05:09	Ok - entered as Cresta. No reference to local build found. -- Last edit: 2017-12-14 15:07:46
Sunbar ◊ 2017-12-13 17:32	When discussing engine sizes 'vauxpedianet' refers to GM South Africa assembling the Viscount PCE from CKD kits with the 5.2 litre Chrysler V8 engine its likely I think they also assembled the Cresta PC. http://vauxpedianet.uk2sitebuilder.com/vauxhall-pc-98000---cresta-viscount (see Model History - Model Year 1966) -- Last edit: 2017-12-13 17:35:38

Also some detail of NZ [PC] assembly from early 66 until 1971 of the Cresta Standard [PCS], along with imports from UK of Cresta Deluxe, estates, and Viscount. Plus a useful reminder that Switzerland made Crestas and Viscounts from April and July 1966.
