NSW Ambulance Service - Holden 

 

In order to find a successor to the aging Ford F series Ambulance, the NSW Ambulance Service and their Queensland counterparts trialled a modified Holden Commodore ute which has a rear section built onto the normal tray in order to accommodate patients. After mixed results, the GMC and Sprinter type of ambulances were preferred.
