Holden Standard

models.

The original 48-215 series Holden sedan of 1948 had been marketed simply as the “Holden”, a policy which was continued after the release of the better equipped Holden Business Sedan in July 1953. However, with the release of the facelifted Holden FJ range in October 1953, the basic Holden officially become the Holden Standard. [John M Wright, “Special, The untold story of Australia’s Holden”, 2008, page 205] It was initially offered only as a four door sedan, however a five door station wagon was also available from 1957. The Holden Standard was replaced by the Holden Belmont when the Holden HK Series models were released in January 1968.
