You go Frank !

. But the VE Commodore shape is nothing but Australian . Holden sells that shape to the rest of the world . It may have a USA engine a German transmission and Diff . But the shape and package itself was designed right here is Oz . Which makes it just as much an aussie car as the falcon . USA V8 German transmission and a Euro rear end . It may have been designed here but it looks like a Mondeo on steroids .
Now to the race cars

. both same cars with a different shell and badge . Simple ! But if it wasn't for a few sooks ( dick johnson and John Bowe and others ) Holden would still be running with a McPherson Strut and still be running a holden engine . The strut set up was proven to be better around the top of the mountain and poor old dickie wasn't to happy with that
