Vauxhall Victor [FB] |

Probablty VX4/90 from side trim. |

what model year? |

But it doesn't have the three-piece rear lights of the VX4/90... |

Good point. No other Victor had that side trim, so it's a Cresta [PB] - possibly the same car as the other one?? |

I think it is an Australian Holden circa 1962 (they were sold in the Middle east at the time and possibly even in Greece) -- Last edit: 2011-02-23 23:37:05 |

I can see the Holden resemblance, but this car is visibly LHD and I would be surprised if Holdens were made with LHD - can anyone answer this? |

It could be 1962-1963 Holden [EJ] indeed by characteristic 'falling-down' side slat and 'holdenish' grey. However tail lights don't match for me. Is it possible Holden used Vauxhall's tail lights for European market? -- Last edit: 2011-02-24 09:33:02 |

Well, Holden made EJ/EH cars in LHD form! New Caledonian car: http://forum.ejehclubqld.com/ehclub/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7880 And Iran sample: http://forum.ejehclubqld.com/ehclub/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7073 |

Final picture - an advert with interesting list of Holden export territories for reference - on Link to "forum.ejehclubqld.com" identifies Greece. Still a slight problem with tail-lights - does not match the pictures I've found for EJ and EH saloons, but looks like the different style used on EJ estate, about 1963 so an easy alteration for local regulations? |
