Just a long shot, looking for a Holden dealer logo for,
Auswilds Motors who were the Holden dealer for Grafton and McLean NSW until the 1970's.

I have found information on another forum that there was an Auswild Motors Griffith NSW a member posted a photo of the company log but I don't know whether it was the same company as Grafton and McLean.

Any help appreciated.

You will need to scroll down a fair way.
They had the decal you want for sale a while ago.

Same Same

Griffiths,Grafton, Maclean, Temora, Bombala and about 30 others without their name on the door. They owned Prestons from 1979.
Biggest "unknown" name in Holden dealerships 60's and 70's.
Sir James and Ron Auswild.

Its a pretty tangled web who owns/owned what in the holden dealership world.

Managing Director of Auswild resigned (ha ha) to become head of the Boyded/John Young/ windsor road/West City Holden group - known as Heartland Holden.

Suttons Sydney - united Adelaide - eagers Brisbane were also deeply entwined. I could write a book! Hold on a minute I am, better get on with it.
