Holden EH - Series Production Racing Sedan 1 - Sept 2023

The Holden EH was produced by General Motors-Holden in Australia from 1963 to 1965.

A variation of the sedan, the S4 SPECIAL, was introduced in September 1963 for racing homologation purposes. A minimum of 100 were required to be built and sold. These featured the 179ci engine, manual transmission with hardened gears, a 12 imp gal (55L) fuel tank (9 imp gal (41L) was standard), a more comprehensive tool kit, metal lined brake shoes and a larger tailshaft.

This Assetto Corsa model is based on the S4 model as it raced under the Series Production rules, for basically stock-standard cars. These rules applied to the annual endurance race at Bathurst, which in 1963 and 1964 was run over 500 miles.

Although the racing rules stipulated stock-standard cars, the engines in the S4 model were factory bluprinted at the manufacturing stage, and were reported to be slightly more powerful than the standard engines.

The skins included in this model are for all known entries that raced at Bathurst in those two years.

This model features working windscreen wipers, and various trim and mirror options from the actual cars that raced. Noteworthy is the fact that the cars were actually road-registered, and the skins show registration plates and windscreen stickers.

Also included is a Photoshop file for those who would like to create custom skins.
