Streamlined caravan on an Oldsmobile chassis, Sandgate, Brisbane, 1936

    1937 was a transition year for Oldsmobile and that was certainly the case here in Australia for the locally assembled models. There were several key changes that took place in 1937, the most significant being a shift from timber-framed bodies to an all-steel structure. The Holden Body plant at Woodville, South Australia also transitioned to an all-steel turret top on Sedan & Sloper Coupe's to follow what Fisher Body had introduced in 1935 in the U.S. for the G.M. range there. Detroit executives apparently underestimated GM-H, they didn't initially believe that the Holden plant was capable of producing the All Steel Turret and was quite surprised when Laurence Hartnett - Managing Director of G.M-H confirmed that not only could the Holden Body plant produce the all-steel turret top, but they had been doing so for the Chrysler, Dodge, De Soto & Plymouth bodies that Holden's had built throughout 1936 for the Chrysler Corporation.
