AN unreleased vehicle is set to be the main attraction at an upcoming event for car lovers.<\/p>\n
Holden Prototype Unveiling Car Show organiser David Gamble said the featured vehicle will be a one-off attraction.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is to bring this car out of hibernation that\u2019s never been seen before,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s actually come from Sydney and the private owners live in Ballarat.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a prototype from Holden, a design they were going to mass-produce but they pulled the pin on it. As far as we know, this is the only one in Australia.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to unveiling this car so the public can actually see it for a change. It\u2019s a one-off car.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe owners wants to reveal it so they can start taking it to more shows.\u201d<\/p>\n
Entry to the car show will cost a gold coin donation, with the event to take place at Delacombe Town Centre.<\/p>\n
A member of the Day Breakers Automobile Club of Victoria, Mr Gamble\u2019s previous events include the Ballarat Beat Car Show and an attraction during last year\u2019s Heritage Festival at Bridge Mall.<\/p>\n
He said he hopes at least 100 cars take part.<\/p>\n
Proceeds from the event will go towards the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia Ballarat Sub-Branch.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dad\u2019s a Vietnam veteran so this is a bit of support for those guys that served,\u201d Mr Gamble said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis\u2019ll be a family day as well. Everyone\u2019s invited, and if you\u2019ve got a car to show, bring it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Holden Prototype Unveiling Car Show takes place on Sunday, 26 February at the Autobarn carpark at DTC from 10am to 3pm, with the unveiling at 12pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
