Here is one for the Holden Race fans. A remarkable history..

http://www.biante.com.au/product_21480.htm

Now if i have my memory working well this car has awesome history.. After Bob Morris it went to Charlie O'Brien...Raced in 1980 by Alf Grant and in 81 and 82 by Gary Whittaker.. It scored 6th place finishes at Lakeside ATCC races in 81 and 82.. A remarkable feat considering the cars age and iirc running detuned spec as per post 1980 regs.. It was the last Group C Torana to take part in a ATCC event, its last one being the 1982 Surfers Paradise round where Gary brought it home 9th.

It should be made in these scales as they have been in other Bathurst winners
will look good in the collection.

This car isnt a Bathurst winner though. It is from the year after Morris/Fitzpatrick won in the L34.

Also the Ruthford/Guthrie car though this was a 2 door A9x and not the 4 door version.. The Moss car needs to be shortened at the rear.

With bonus Triumph in the boot.

Here she is. Photo fromSteve Stathis's book 'Bathurst A9X Toranas- A photographic History'

Great series of books, get them if you can as they will sell out.

this car will look great in my collection of 1/64 cars I hope that they will make Rudford/Guthrie 2 door as well if it comes out in 1/64
