So was the "new" 1978 Commodore just an Opel in disguise?

Maybe someone wants to do a proper thread about the history/development of the VB Commodore so it's on the forum for all eternity?

Maybe we should do this for every generation of Commodore and older Holden's... I kind of did this in the HD/HR section...

Can it include the alternative front they had in the form of the VA?

Holden had a twin headlight version in case the new headlights were not to the liking of the Australian public. I learnt that from @CommodoreNut back in the day. What he didn’t know about Commodores wasn’t worth knowing.

I have a photo of it somewhere.

I wish I could find a picture I had of a Commodore compliance plate...It was a VD Commodore....

Didn't the Adayer Sportif have twin headlights at the front?

Pretty sure when the Commodore was coming out, it was going to be a VA Commodore, but the powers to be changed it to be a VB...

So @Fu Manchu is right with what he is referring to
