Classic Carlectables 1/18 Holden EH Utility – Radial Collection No. 02 Goodyear

Step back into Australian automotive history with the Classic Carlectables 1/18 Holden EH Utility, a detailed diecast replica that celebrates one of Australia’s most iconic and bestselling cars. Released in 1963, the EH became an instant favourite thanks to its new engine design, improved styling and strong value for money. It quickly became the fastestselling car in the country and was offered in nine model variations, including the hardworking Utility and Panel Van.

The EH introduced the famous “Red” engine, a major improvement over the earlier Grey engine. More powerful, more fuelefficient and easier to maintain, it helped the EH achieve legendary status. The 149cui engine delivered 100hp, while the 179cui offered an impressive 115hp. Although both engines and the Hydramatic transmission were available in the Utility and Panel Van, most sold were 149cui models with manual transmissions.

Designed for work, the EH Utility featured durable laminated hardwood trays, halfton load capacity and a simplified Standard trim level. Practical touches, like removing the driver’s side door lock for safer delivery stops, made it a favourite among tradespeople and businesses.

This premium diecast model includes a certificate of authenticity and a production number plate mounted to the chassis, making it an excellent addition for collectors and Holden fans.
