[quote G08F9CA8A27O740G]DavidBurrell What an interesting shot of (I presume) an HD Holden with what looks like a LHD Hydra-Matic quadrant. I guess they were going to use the Slim-Jim in the HD as well until GM ceased making them, and Holden switched to PowerGlide.[/quote] I just happened to have that image in a convenient file to use as an illustration, Deltic. It is a fibreglass mockup of the HD dashboard, constructed in GM's US design studios by a team led by Leo Pruneau. It uses parts that were to hand in the studio, hence the Hydramatic left hand drive layout for the selector. Here's a wider photo. Note the date on the photo is 30th August 1962. A Hydramatic badge was fixed to the boot lid of the fibreglass body mock up, too.
