Ansett Motors building in Hamilton, Victoria, Australia, officially opened in 1931

The business was founded by Sir Reg Ansett (13 February 1909 – 23 December 1981) later best known for Ansett airways. In December 1931 he purchased a second-hand Studebaker and began a service car operation between Ballarat and Maryborough carrying passengers and small items of freight. However, this one looks later than 1931 and obviously had a luggage roofrack.This art deco styled building was in Gray Street. As can be seen, Ansett Motors was a dealer for Triumph Cars, DeSoto cars and Fargo Trucks as well operating Ansett Roadways buses.
