Another great story, David - the '63 and '64 Rivs were masterpieces. To quote your comment on the EH Holden "As I wrote in Retroautos May 2018 edition, even the EH Holden was given a Riviera roof line. Maybe that’s why it is acclaimed as Australia’s favourite classic car." About a week after the EH was announced in 1963, Ford Australia were quick off the mark to note the T-Bird roofline was being imitated. Obviously a shot at GMH, as well as the AP5 Valiant which sported the same basic look. This is one of those fabulous ads having a dig at the opposition without mentioning names.
