STEVEN BACICH 1963 EH HOLDEN

“THE EH was my dad Len’s first car. He bought it in 1966; we still have the receipt somewhere. It was then my first car as a teenager, but I was in a bingle in 2004 and it took 15 years to get it back on the road. I like to think that I just improved the car rather than modifying it. It now features an all-new original interior, new Eden Blue (the original colour) paintwork and a neatly detailed and warmed-up six with triple SUS. It runs an all-synchro three-speed, VS Commodore diff, IFS front end and disc brakes all ’round. I have special memories of completing the build at my dad’s place before he passed away in April this year from a brain tumour. My father enriched so many lives with his humour, wit and kindness. He was a legend and the EH is his legacy. Thanks, Dad.” Photos: Jordan Leist
