Holy grail Holden!! A stunning representation of an A9X Hatchback finished in Jasmine Yellow with black trim. The A9X is a beautiful example that has never been totally restored but instead lovingly cared for and maintained by all its owners over its 48-year existence. Both the outside and the inside are in superb condition without any modifications. For the purists, the car still runs its original matching number engine. A new exhaust has been fitted to the car recently and is as close to factory spec as possible. The car has been maintained and improved by its current owner. Interior is untouched and all original including seats, door trims and carpet. The car still sits on its original “256” rims including the spare. The odometer displays just over 91,000 careful kilometres. Only 100 A9X hatchbacks were produced originally with a fraction of them left in existence. Please contact one of our friendly staff to make an appointment to view this car at our Kogarah showroom.
In the somewhat wet 1972 Hardie-Ferodo 500, the lightweight HDT Torana GTR XU-1 claimed victory against the heavyweight GT-HO, driven solo for 500 miles (800 km) by Peter Brock. This would be the start of the ‘Peter Perfect’/Torana legend, and the first of five Bathurst wins for the Torana in its colourful 10-year racing career at Bathurst. This beautifully restored example is a great representation of the LJ GTR XU-1 model. The factory colour, Patina Gold is unique and displays elegance to this little pocket rocket. Sitting on period correct Sprint Master mags. Sporting the original black vinyl interior which is still in fantastic condition. Under the hood is the matching number 202 “JP” straight six engine with triple carbs. The XU-1 was produced in February of 1973 and sold in March of 1973 through City Auto Sales PTY. LTD. In Toowoomba, Queensland. An extensive amount of paperwork comes with the car too. Showing just under 47,000 miles. Contact one of our friendly staff to make an appointment to view this vehicle at our Kogarah facility.
In August 1970, the first ultra-performance Torana, the GTR XU-1, was developed by Holden along with Harry Firth of the Holden Dealer Team for competition in popular Series Production touring car racing within Australia. This car, built in February of 1971 is a super honest example with only very minimal alterations, only being the front seatbelts and the addition of a five-speed gearbox. The original gearbox and associated items are included with the sale of the car. Originally delivered through Kevin Dennis Motors and owned by Kevin himself who is believed to have campaigned the car in motorsport events up until 1973 when it changed hands to the second owner. The eye popping Plumdinger paintwork has been redone at some point of the cars life and still presents nicely. Inside, although showing signs of wear and tear is completely original and could either be redone or left as is by the next owner. Under the hood is the genuine matching number six-cylinder 186 engine with most of its original components which has recently been rebuilt. Still retaining its original issued Victorian number plates as well as documentation. Now available for inspection by appointment at our Kogarah facility.
