History/Specifications:

1963 Holden EH S4 Bathurst sedan. 1 of 11 of the original 126 built, known to still exist. It is all complete and has had about $14000.00 already spent on body repair work (Bonnyrigg Motors) but at present is in undercoat primer, still requiring minor body work (like panel gaps), painting and reassembly.

It is probably one of the most famous EH S4 apart from the original race cars. It did go to Bathurst in 1963 but only as a spare car that wasn't required. It was originally owned by Bob Atkins, who was the crew chief for Scuderia Veloce racing, and later dealer principle of Scuderia Veloce Porsche. It has everything with it that is unique to S4's including:

Original Motor

Original Gearbox (numbered)

Larger S4 fuel tank

S4 Bodytag (old type compliance tag)

Original body of course with chassis number

Original owners book

Original Factory Build sheet (the only one known to exist)

Original Diff (with Nodular Iron Centre)

The car was originally Winton red with a Fowlers Ivory (white) roof which would be the best colour for a restored EH as well. It comes with a mint condition set of original correct colour front and back seats, and all parts required to reassemble, apart from a set of repro rubber floor mats that would need to be purchased.
