Issue 17 – 1949 Holden 48-215 (FX) Sedan.
This issue is part of an exceptional collection of 1:43 scale Australian car models, vividly bringing to life the rich motoring heritage of Australia. Launched by Prime Minister Ben Chifley as 'Australia's Own Car,' the 48-215 was the first mass-produced car designed specifically for local conditions. It was a symbol of post-war pride and industrial progress.
For the collector, owning this model is like owning a piece of the nation's history – it provided affordable transport to the masses and represents the very beginning of the country's unique automotive journey.
