ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
A73339 - 1:18 Scale Holden HX Panel Van - Holden Dealer Team Service Vehicle
ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:
Biante Model Cars are very pleased to present something a little different for collectors, the 1:18 Scale Holden HX Panel Van Holden Dealer Team
Service Vehicle.
Throughout the 1970’s Holden teams were commonly seen using panel vans as their way of transporting the necessary parts, tyres and relevant tools
for race meetings. If the race didn’t go as well as planned, sometimes the vans were also used for towing the cars home! Some of the bigger teams
were known for replicating their race car liveries on the vans to complete the “whole team look” and there weren’t too many bigger teams during this
period than the Marlboro backed Holden Dealer Team.
This particular replica is of one of the service vehicles used by HDT around the 1975 / 76 seasons and essentially features an exact copy of the iconic
livery featured on their cars during that time. The race livery on the Panel Van actually works really well and it would have been fantastic to see the
service vehicle and the race car sitting next to each other at the track back in what is now considered a golden era of Australian motorsport.
For collectors of Australian Touring Car Championship cars from the mid 70’s, this is a model that would fit nicely in your collection. While we can’t
see the cars at the track any more, this model will look awesome alongside a 75 / 76 HDT Torana, particularly once the missing Marlboro logos are
applied next to the HDT logos on to the sides of the car, bonnet and rear tailgate.
Produced by Autoart, this model will be an exceptional replica featuring high detail, fully opening parts and beautiful finishing. It shouldn’t be missed.

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
A72725 - 1:18 Scale Ford XA Falcon GT Hardtop - Summer Gold
ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:
Biante Model Cars are pleased to present the 1:18 Scale Ford XA Falcon GT Hardtop in the popular Summer Gold colour scheme.
The Australian arm of the Ford Motor Company has one of the world’s most enviable reputations for producing the unique ‘Australian’ brand of motor
vehicle. Many punters would argue that the GTHO’s were the defining point of the Australian produced muscle car, but there are others who believe
that the makings of Ford Australia becoming a truly unique local brand was the inception of the Ford XA Falcon.
Up until the 1970’s, Ford was still run with very close ties to Ford America, with many of the cars being designed with heavy American influences. The
XA Falcon bucked this trend because it was a fully Australian designed model. This new car was introduced to the Australian public in 1972, and was
a totally new shape and style in comparison to the previous XY Falcon.
Featuring a larger body and a longer list of options than what was previously available in the market, the XA was an entirely different beast. The
introduction of the two-door hardtop XA was the first time that this body style was available in Australia on a Falcon since the XP was released in
1965. The longer, sleeker doors with frame-less windows were an unmistakable feature for this model and ensured that the XA was definitely a new
breed of Falcon for the Australian consumer.
Powered by a 351 Cubic Inch 5.8 litre Cleveland V8 with gorgeous paint combinations, the XA 2 door Hardtop was certainly a desirable car for the
motoring enthusiast of the time and was always destined for on track success.
This particular Summer Gold replica is another fantastic model produced by Autoart. As always it will be produced in die-cast with fully opening parts,
high detail and beautiful finishing throughout. It also features some little points of difference compared to previously released XA GT Hardtop models
in this scale including the iconic Globe Wheels and this model will feature the front spoiler only. If you’re a fan of the blue oval then this will be a great
addition to your collection.
