My first car.
Holden (GMH) Australian made 1948 - 1952. I got it secondhand in the mid 1960s aged about 19 and drove it for about 10 years.
Looking back I still cringe at that car - by today's standards (and probably those of the time too) it was unsafe at virtually any speed. Cross ply tyres, drum brakes, lever action front shockers, vacuum wipers and 6 cylinder OHV engine.
It would go but the steering was terrible and the brakes worse. An emergency brake application and there was no telling where or in which direction you would end up.
I still shudder when I think about that car.
