Holden Models are lovely, especially if built to a nice standards, those kits represent good value and you can build them up to your own standards and colours, they used to do a matching living van so they made a beautiful pair.

Sadly I don't think these models have been produced for many years, so the chances of making contact with Michael Holdens is highly unlikely. The engines very small in size and slightly smaller than a 1 inch scale Minnie. (Probably nearer Mamod size than 3 inch Burrell size)

A well built gas fired example with living van fetched around £1800 on Ebay last year.

3/4" scale is 3/4" to the foot this works out at 1/16th the full size and the engine would be about 14" long
