Why this kit matters
The Holden LJ Torana (produced 1972-1974) holds a special place in Australian automotive culture as a compact, high-performance car often fitted with V8 engines by enthusiasts. Its combination of light chassis and big power makes it a favourite among custom-car and street-machine modellers.

This DDA Collectibles kit captures that heritage in 1:24 scale with full engine detail, custom stance and modifiable styling, offering hobbyists a rewarding build process and a standout display piece rather than a simple ‘stock’ model. The custom theme appeals to those who like tuning, show cars and scale model customisation.

How to use it
Begin by organising all sprues and reading the instruction booklet. Paint the body and interior components, then glue together chassis, engine and body shells. Assemble sub-assemblies such as the engine bay, suspension and wheels, then attach to the body. Apply decals and finishing coat to complete the look. Display the finished model in a case or on a shelf where its custom stance and detail can shine.

This is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint, and glue are required. It is not a toy.
