Talk:Holden

message: It seems this reference is misleading. Yes HMBB did build a couple of Ford T bodies c1923 but the reference indicates hmbb was a source of Ford bodies.
Until Ford Aust est bodies for T Fords were produced in the main by each Ford Distributor, in Victoria it was Tarrants in NSW it was Davis & Fehon. Refer The History of Ford in Australia chapter 2. by Norm Darwin
On the matter of Fishermen's Bend. I have a Holden publication dated 1936 titled "The Changing Trend" by GMH that shows there address as Fishermen's Bend. GMH continued to use this Fishermen's Bend through the 60s and when publishing 100 Years of GM in Australia I had a discussion with Holden's PR dept about the spelling and apostrophe. As there was more than one Fisherman on the bend of the Yarra perhaps the apostrophe should have been after the S. Just to confuse things an early copy of Morgan's Street Directory spells it Fisherman's Bend, but then they show it where Garden City should be. Victorian place names use Fishermens Bend as a Historical ref and Fishermans Bend as the Official name. No apostrophe. Holden's address is now Port Melbouurne.

message: I saw a recent change to General Motors where Holden was removed from the list of Divisions in the infobox, and it appears in the list of Subsidiaries instead.  This conflicts with other things like the Holden timeline template and General Motors template, where Holden is listed as a brand, or marque, of General Motors, like Chevrolet/Buick/Cadillac/GMC, rather than a subsidiary, like Wuling/Baojun/Ravon.  Is there consensus on which one Holden is? --Vossanova o< 15:03, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Why do you think it must be one or the other? I expect it has always been both. Johnbod (talk) 17:39, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, let me rephrase that.  Is it only a brand, or is it also a subsidiary as well? --Vossanova o< 21:01, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
