I was into cars then, just starting to learn to drive in 1963. By then most of the late 1950 Victors had been taken back to the dealers, without much success. If Vauxhaul had played fair with their customers they would've gone bust right there and then.

The story was the steel was extra thin and not clean when painted.......so rust ran riot.
