Holden EFIJY Concept to be at NAIAS

Featured Replies

For those of you in the Detroit area, according to the MSN - Autos web site, the Holden EFIJY Concept will be at NAIAS.

Here's the relevant information:

Representing General Motors of Australia is the Holden EFIJY Concept, a modern interpretation of a 1953 FJ Holden. Its long, sweeping fibreglass body and deep purple paint reminds us of the CadZZilla, a one-off hotrod designed by Boyd Coddington for Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, but it’s more modern and in many ways even more eye-catching. Under the hood is a supercharged 6.0-litre LS2 V8 engine mated to an automatic gearbox. So far it's been a hit to a certain breed of auto enthusiasts - the hotrod lover. In fact this factory-built special topped Hot Rod Magazine's Best of 2006 list, which means that it’s something special considering manufacturer-designed and built vehicles almost never make the cut.

Article on the Efijy in the April 06 issue of Hot Rod magazine

Interesting that's it's called 'more modern'. As far as exterior styling goes, the '48-49-based Cadzilla has fully-integrated front fenders, while the '53 Holden still retained the pontoons that none of GM's core divisons retained after '48. Not knocking either hot rod, both are awesome... just remarking.
