Favourite HOLDEN

[Mechan1k]

Sorry for the average pics.
I have a soft spot for the smaller Torries.
Saw this at a car show on Australia Day.
Only took 2 images of it (I needed a wider lens on the day as there were that many people there it was packed).





drool.

I've owned a fair few Fords and Holdens. I regret selling my LC Torana because of drive-in memories with the girls and I did like the VL Turbo. The five V8's have been good to me. The VE is by far the best car I've ever owned in all facets, but if I was after a project car I'd be going the HG Monaro Coupe in a Canary Yellow.

i sold my hq 4door with a 350 chev to buy my eb...i wish i had have kept it in the backyard for the future but it was worth bugger all a few years ago and i thought it would be easy to get another one...all the ones on ebay are overpriced!!! but i still look

[blueoval]

mitch_302 - that Monaro reeks of sexuality. Love it

I just quickly Scanned these very Old Pics of 2 of My Old Holdens in to show.

My Holden selection is:

Torana SLR5000 Sedan, they just look tough!!

Torana XU-I, the epitomie of '70's cool!!

Commodore VK Group A, the Blue meanie. I generally don't like Commodores but this particular one I love!!

As for the current stuff, I do like the VE range. They are a good looking car and I'd be quite happy with a Calais V in the driveway.

[R0BD0G]

HT Monaro/VL Walkinshaw special or VL Director/EH Ute

[GS608]

Torana A9X
VX SS's are second.

and thats all..

[TaNkY fAiRmOnT]

I was expecting a lot of people to say the VL turbo. but in my opinion, the gold monaro CV8Z... very very nice tough solid built car. would have one any day!

[ZA-289]

HG Brougham 350

[IH8HSV]

A vl ss group A.

What a beast. I ld have it in black if it came out in that colour.

[GlennBA]

the VX and VE senators are wicked. The new statesman looks awesome too, it 5h1ts over the fairlane imo.

[BadMac]

I'm quite fond of this one, but it will go soon to make way for a ???



Otherwise. I'm a LC XU1 fan, my second car (1st was a 1100 Mk1 Escort).

Failing that. I'd like this.
Which is fast heading out of my reach and probably back home to Aus.

I can agree there I owned a HT serbing Orange HT Monaro GTS in the late70's early 80's so they are my favourite Holden tragic part was I traded it on a Charger 360cu and only got $1,500 trade in. It was a 308 2 speed auto though but still would bring decent money now as I was the second owner and sold it with all service and ownership papers in the glove box.

I dug up an old pic of it taken about 1981 the only 1 I could find of it.
