Can there be an adult Australian who has never driven a Holden or at least ridden in one The Holden Museum in Echuca is dedicated to preserving the models and their memories. From the day the first Holden 48-215 FX emerged from the production line, Holden arose to become the colossus of the Australian Motor Car Industry.
