A historic prototype of the original Australian car, the Holden 48-215, is about to go under the hammer in Melbourne.

Affectionately known as “KJ 400” (after the number plate), the hand-shaped prototype will be auctioned at the upcoming Motorclassica event by the Theodore Bruce auction group.

While myths and stories of the earliest Holdens abound, it is believed that KJ 400 may be the fourth of five 48-215 prototypes - and the first to be built entirely in Australia.
