Finally! We have a manufacturer making kits of Australian cars! I picked up my first one today, been waiting 6 months for the preorders to arrive.
Each car is being released in several different versions to! Stock, custom, drag.

I didn't know about these.
Just did some looking, wasn't easy but a HJ Panel Van is next.
There have been some resin kits over the years such as Cavalier Model Productions and The Parts Box still make a few 1/24 kits in either full kerbside or slot car versions.
They are really good quality.
It'll be interesting to see what they come up with.
I hope they do some Valiants

I haven't started work yet, but first impressions are good. I have cavalier and parts box kits, this is way better. Packaging is over the top. Hard case with hinged lid like diecast models. I've ordered a HJ van 🙂 There's supposed to be many more on the way! And yes, some valiants would be super cool. R/T Charger please DDA...

I've started work on this one and have found the body isn't styrene plastic. I glued the boot lid shut weeks ago, and while scribing body lines it popped off. I use Revell contacta glue. It all just scraped off with my fingernail ☹️. I'll try super glue next.

Emailed the manufacturer, the whole kit is abs plastic. Very unusual...

Curious to know, what works with ABS?

That was my first thought when I read your comment that it's not styrene
