Summary

[edit]
Description

Built from August 1963-Feb 1965. Although visually just a facelift on the EJ, the EH got the new increased capacity Red motor with 7 main bearings instead of the old greys 4. The Special got two tone paint (Standard, one colour) Engine; 149 or 179 red 6 cyls

With a win at Bathurst in mind, in Sept 1963, a performance version was built, the S4, 126 were made. Only 11 are accounted for today. There was no visual difference from the outside, unless you looked underneath for the larger 12 gal drop tank. They also got the 179 engine with upgraded 3 speed manual gearbox and power brakes (all other 179 cars were autos), also Heavy duty suspension, hardened gears, metal lined brake shoes and a larger tail shaft.
