Product Description
Australian DDA plastic model 1/24 scale racing Holden Torana A9X
A representative sports coupe muscle car from GM Australia, a slightly earlier model than the GM Morano HQ from the movie "Matt Maxwell".
This is a precision plastic model that even reproduces the engine.
General Motors Holden Racing Holden Torana A9XThe company originally started out as a saddlery manufacturer, but after being acquired by GM, it released sedans, pickup trucks, and other vehicles tailored to the local market, based on GM's American-based car, the Corvette.
50% of sales were domestic, but the company's share in Southeast Asia is also expanding.
In addition, the European GM brand Vauxhall (Opel) released a mid-size car called the Viva, which was updated with an original design and released as the two-door coupe called the Torana.
It later evolved into a 5.0-liter V8 muscle car in 1974 (using a Pontiac engine), but it was Peter Brock who made the Torana world famous.
He designed the Cobra with Carroll Shelby, and while Shelby was preoccupied with the GT40, he created the Le Mans Special with the Daytona Cobra. He won many races with the lightweight Advance in a Nissan Bluebird, and then the Holden Torana was his beloved car, which he used for 40 years.
Although the Holden brand disappeared in 2021, the Holden Torana A9X is synonymous with legendary touring cars and muscle cars.
It was a rival that shared victory with the Ford Falcon in the Suburban 500.
