Issue 53 – 1967 Holden HR Special Wagon.
Belonging to a definitive collection of 1:43 scale miniatures, this release pays tribute to the engineering and design excellence of the Australian automotive industry. Launched in 1966 as Holden's answer to a new decade, the HR reworked nearly every exterior panel of its HD predecessor, adding a fresh grille, a revised roofline, and tall vertical tail lights. The Special-trim wagon paired stainless-steel side trim and a smart two-tone finish with genuine load-hauling ability, making it the go-to choice for families towing the caravan or tradesmen filling the back with tools.
For the collector, this model captures the crisp new lines and practical charm of a wagon that balanced style with everyday usefulness.
