1953 FJ Holden
1953 Holden FJ
A much-celebrated Australian icon, the FJ ensured Holden’s place as the country’s most popular car. It was distinguished by a bold new grille, new hubcaps and a torpedo-style tail-light. Engine, power output and gearing remained unchanged. There were now three model levels: Standard, Business and the Special sedan – and a panel van joined the utility. Virtues included energetic performance, rugged dependability, low maintenance, unbeatable value.

Interesting to see FJ dashboard photo, is a styling exercise shot, a real pity it didn’t go into production, even back then the beancounters in Detroit, were making sure we received, a very basic product with minimal retooling required, between model updates, dont get me wrong I own a 1953/215 and love the early Holdenss
