Title: Cars 4 and 5
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.
Regards
Alex

Hi 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
