AMC reviews the latest names making it big in miniature.
1967 HR Premier Sedan

the HD, the HR featured not just some sleek new body changes, but also more power in the shape of the twin-carb 186S ‘red engine’ and introduced a range of safety packages to the local market. The HR is a significant classic Australian car and Biante wil release this 1:18 scale version in stylish Tennyson Turquoise and white later this year.
1971 Holden LC Torana GTR
The
LC Torana was a game changer for GM-H, forming the building blocks for the Torana nameplate, not only to become a force to be reckoned with in terms of on road sales during the 1970s, but also in Australian motorsport. Biante’s upcoming 1:18 scale diecast model feaures a stunning Taormina Aqua Metallic paint scheme.
2013 Sandown 500 Pepsi Max Crew FG Falcon
The
2013 Sandown enduro was tough for Mark Winterbottom, starting from fourth place on the grid and stalling off the line. With the start of the race compromised, the strategy for the car was switched and using a pace car to their advantage he and Richards were able to get back into contention. Unfortunately luck was not with the #5 when a wheel nut refused to unscrew, losing more valuable time. With nothing left to lose Winterbottom rejoined the race and hunted down the leaders, finishing sixth.This new 1:18 scale diecast model of Frosty’s FG Falcon by Classic Carlectables features his signature on a mounted scale-model of the bonnet and comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, in a limited edtion of 1450 pieces.
