The foundations of the VE helped Holden motorsport claim 103 V8 Supercar race wins, including multiple Bathurst 1000 victories and series championships to have the model sitting in 2nd place on the all time winning model list behind its eventual VF Commodore replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a car that was not only beautifully designed, but commands a tremendous amount of respect and will in time, likely be viewed as an iconic piece of Australian motoring history, especially now the Holden brand has sadly been retired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthentic Collectables are very proud to present the high end sports variant of the VE Commodore, the SS V-Series in the much requested Morpheus colour scheme in model form for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur previous releases of this model in varying colour schemes have been highly regarded by collectors and we expect this next release in the range to be no different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Morpheus edition has been produced in 1:18 scale die-cast with fully opening parts and high detail in an exclusive limited edition with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AUTHENTIC COLLECTABLES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51394498593007,"sku":"ACD18HVE1D","price":399.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/5885\/8223\/files\/MORPHEUS5.webp?v=1793666368","url":"https:\/\/elitediecastsalesaustralia.com.au\/products\/holden-ve-commodore-ss-v-morpheus-1-18-scale-diecast-model-authentic-collectables","provider":"Elite Diecast Sales Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
