      Holden FJ History

      Holden FJ 1953-1956

      In October 1953 Holden released the face lifted FJ Series. The FJ Series was easily identified from it’s predecessor by the bold chrome bar grille and torpedo styled tail lights. Along with the normal sedan model and the utility model, Holden introduced the Special Sedan, an upmarket variation. This had as extra equipment, Deluxe leather seats, front door arm rests, rear passenger assist straps, cigarette lighter plus a few other minor embellishments. On the exterior, there was extra chrome work around the windows and small chrome fins on the rear guards. This model was also available in a two tone colour scheme

      Two months after the release of the FJ Sedan and Utility, Holden introduced the Panel Van. This was basically a Utility with an extended roof line and upper and lower tailgates at the rear. A Station Wagon version reached prototype stage before being shelved.

      By 1954, Holden were producing 250 vehicles a day. On the 12th December 1955 the 250,000th Holden, an FJ sedan was produced.
