Bad FJ Holden

This is the FJ from the movie "The FJ Holden". It's an australian movie about youth culture in the 70s (you know, sex, booze and 70's music), and yes Frankie J does contribute some vocals. Holden FJ is a typical 70's teenager's get-around with patched paintwork. The model is from ADR, i got from ebay and i've mirrored the paint job and printed the plate 'BAD-781'. this model doesn't include a rear parcel shelf, so i added a styrene one. unfortunately the hubcaps are molded on, or i would have left them off.

You captured the look really well. Nice one.

very well done

Now thats really BAD, really captures the look of the car . Would be pretty hard to find scale versions of the mags on this Fj. This movie has great footage of street racing at the "Brickies" in Homebush.

And it had a EH van in it too!

The mags were off a leyland p76 .

A top replica of a car from one of Australia's most underated movies. It's worth seeking out guys. A great job all round mate.

Very nice. Looks exactly like the FJ we used to play in when I was about 4 or 5 years old. She was a dead one in the back yard next to the swing set. Looks the same but had a caved in roof.

ya got to love the old FJ Holden's,great work on it.

This is really cool - I prefer it in yellow though.

I (barely) remember that movie. Think my parents must have snuck me into the drive in or something. Hopefully they show it on ABC 2 sometime in the near future...

The last time it was shown it was on sbs UNCUT ! I think you can get it from abc shops ?

Damn , I remember that movie now , didn't the guy who drove the FJ have a shark tattooed on his arm ? Cool looking model and just as I remember it from the movie , well done
