    Default Does any one have his book

    The Holden Heritage. It has the 5,000,000 commodore on the front but the photo is too small to read the small print. I want to know if it sayes the production date.

    Many times. They must think I'm a pest by now. Just bugs me not knowing.

    I've tried many email addresses - some bounce back as no good - the others must be tooo busy. (if you get 50 emails a day it soon piles up)

    Anyone have a good contact in the HOLDEN establishment that may return info?

    the picture you have posted is not the 5 millionth commodore, it is 5 millionth holden which was built (and as it reads in the picture you posted) is 29th of august 1989

    Must of been getting weary. Just checked the time I posted - well very late indeed.

    You are correct it is the 5,000,000 Holden not Commodore and thanks for taking the time to do a scan.
