SOLD! LOT 5 – 1952 HOLDEN FX SEDAN

NO RESERVE! 1952 Holden FX Sedan

HIGHLIGHTS: – Rare survivor 48-215 Holden – First model every mass produced by Holden – Repainted in original colour – Matching numbers 132.5ci 6 cyl engine – Three speed manual transmission – Converted to 12 volt – Very well documented with rego certs back to the 50s – Selling at NO RESERVE

This 1952 Holden FX sedan is a survivor car that comes to us from a large private collection of vehicles. These early Holdens have certainly grown in value over the last few years with Holden shutting down and collectors wanting a slice of the action.

This particular example has only ever been registered in the Northern Territory, where it was sold new. A documentation folder with the car contains a large number of previous registration certificates and records of the car in NT from the 50s onwards. The car was registered there from new with a historic rego of 903.

The body of the car has been repainted in its original colour of Marl Grey at some stage in its life. The chrome on the front of the car including the grill and front bumper have also been refinished. Inside the car has been upgraded to carpets on the floors which would have originally been rubber. The trim on the seats and headliner are neat but the original wind lacing around the door openings is showing its age.

The car retains the original, matching numbers 132ci Holden Grey 6 cyl engine. The engine is paired to the factory 3 speed column shifted manual transmission. For reliability the car has been converted over to a 12 volt electrical system.

These early Holdens are great collector quality classic cars and good examples like this are becoming harder to find. This car is being offered at NO RESERVE and will sell to the highest bidder at the close of the auction!
