Post by: bill1ann1 on April 24, 2008, 02:05:08 PM
Hello
I hope I,m not abusing this column, but  I,m writing on behalf of William Scott[Bill] who worked, with 4 panel beaters from adelaide, on cars 4 and 5 at Fishermans bend as a body developer and pattern maker. Eventually working up to General Superindent of Experimental Engineering
Thought perhaps I could find some old work mates

Hello Ann
You may not have noticed this thread about an upcoming event that will include talks from Long time Holden employees from around that era.
I am reprinting part of a thread that can be found in the events section.

Alex

QuoteHi all,
  Just a reminder if you are planning on coming along to our dinner in
celebration of the FC turning 50 years of age!

We have secured 2 Holden Retirees as guest speakers; Both were Engineers.
John Lee started at Holden in 1950 and Frank Pound in 1951. They are long
time Friends and both have excellent memories and a wonderful sense of
humour. We also have Jack Rawnsley, the last surviving Engineer that went
to
America to work and bring back the 48/215 proto types. We have also asked
Hugh Videion to talk on behalf of  Tom Molnar who, when he left Holden,
went
to PBR and help design and build the Repco head  with Phil Irving &
Charlie
Dean which was first fitted to his FC.

Please come along to listen to their stories as there are not too many
Holden engineers  left who had involvement with FE and FC and early
Holdens.

RSVP by Monday 28th April 2008.
Regards,
Tony Galea
President
FE-FC Holden Car Club Of Vic Inc
