The first Velox was introduced in 1948. The PB was the final version of the Velox, launched along with the Cresta PB, built from 1962-65, not only were they built in England, but in New Zealand by GMNZ. With the upmarket Cresta, there was a model after the PB, the boxier shaped PC. The PC Vauxhall Cresta was built from 1965-72 available in PCS (standard), PCD (Deluxe) and PCE (Executive), this last having its own name, 'Viscount'. The PC was a different car, larger and styled with the coke-bottle look that would also be seen in the FD Victor series: it now resembled a slightly smaller Chevrolet Impala. It was similar to the Australian Holden HR. The top of the line Viscount was introduced in 1966, standard with power steering, electric windows, reclining seats, a vinyl roof, walnut dashboard, inertia reel seat belts front, and even a heated rear window. Areas of the grille and headlamp surrounds were blacked out to give a classier look and the tail-lights had a chrome overlay.
