I know most people don't really care about this, but I still find it fascinating at #Holden managed to reskin the Commodore for the VK series without changing front wings, roof or boot pressings. The wings are the same as on the VB–VH. They changed it from a four-light to a six-light body and kept the roof identical. Opel's people said it couldn't be done, and the Aussies went, 'Hold my beer.' #car #design #redesign #GM #history #Australia
