1973 HQ Holden GTS tribute - today's tempter

Aussie classic restomod

The release of the HQ series was a massive undertaking for Holden and was to become a huge success. 

In a feature on the series, Mark Higgins noted: "July 15, 1971, was big for General-Motors Holden and the Australian auto industry with the introduction of its radically different Holden HQ, a ground-up new design featuring an all-new chassis, body and suspension layout.

"Gone was the boxy shape of previous generations, replaced by a far more stylish soft-cornered body with a prominent hip line that Aussie buyers fell in love with."

This example is a GTS tribute, complete with 336 stroker V8 and three-speed automatic transmission with sports shift.

Located in Geelong, Vic, it’s on the market at $80,000.
