It'd be interesting if you could find out what the build number of your particular car was and how that relates to "build number"...my VX was made in late 2001...I'd like to know how close it is to the 6 millionth.:dance:

The 6 millionth Holden VX was built on the 7th of June 2001.

The S/N Number for that time is around 750,000. ish.

i dont wanna sound like a know-it-all... but they have been around in some way or another for longet then that.

back in around 1860 holden first started out as a saddle making company. in 1913 they started production of sidecars for motorbikes. during and after WW1 they built car bodies for dodge and buick. in 1924 GM did a deal with holden so they would only build GM car, bodies at their new plant in woodville. the 'lion and stone' symbol was sculpted in 1928 and in 31 holden was bought buy GM to form GM-H. fishermens bend was opened in 36.

*sigh* i cant be stuffed copying more out of the book along side of me, but you get the idea... holden has been an australian company for almost 150 years

i was reading that somewhere? or maby it was n the peter borck tv show?:rip: P b

The info is from many places - Internet, books and photos of cars in wrecking yards. :thumbsup:

Dont know about owner history as that gets into the privacy act.... Sorry.

Mostly the only way to get that info is from the people you buy the car off.

We went for a holiday a year or so ago and I saw that 6 millionth VX SS in the museum I actually slipped over the rope that was around it and wrote down the VIN number, will have to go through our holiday stuff and see if I can find it I had forgotton all about it until reading this thread so haven't checked my 2001 VX SS. Will post the detail when I find them.
