1961 Holden EK Ute

Posted on March 26, 2014   

For anyone who does not know, Holden is GM's Australian division, like Vauxhall in the UK. The Holden EK was built as a facelift for the previous FB model. The EK was produced from May 1961 to July 1962, with a total of about 150,000 vehicles produced. My Holden is a "Standard" model, with 3-speed column shift manual and basic 138 cu-in straight six, but it did have many desirable factory options and accessories, including a heater, two-tone interior trim, trailer hitch, a ribbed aluminum valve cover, chrome air filter, and a chrome breather. The Silverton Grey paint color was not a popular option, but definitely suits the car well. What makes this car special, however, is that it is not in Australia; it has come all the way to New Jersey, and is one of just two EK Utes in the whole country to my knowledge.
