This was the second Monaro to win The HK 327 was the first

I know this truck and the family from Sunshine. Good old days.

no it's gmh greatest car ever built

Any truth to the rumours at the time that the Toranas were running stroker cranks to give them around 335c.i.?

A car is worth what someone is willing to pay, and emotions play a large part as a car can take us back to our youth. I owned a 1968 Ford Falcon and it really was a favourite of mine for sentimental reasons, so simple and i could cimb into the engine bay when i was working on it. Even though it really was a piece of crap i would gladly pay that money if i were rich, memories and taking me back to my youth would be worth that and more. Cheers,

Much prefer this to the current crop of same looking cars, Mustang vs Camaro, Who gives a flying fuck?

Oz muscle cars Right On !!

Does this still work in 2024?

Johnson' Ford pooed its pants big time!!!

Those Fords looked great, but were lumbering giant with poor brakes and weight issues...Holden were an amazing team...

I nearly bought a used SS Torana hatchback 3300 from a Melbourne car yard in 1987. It was $7000. I thought it was too expensive. 🤦

This is the most dominant win in the history of Australian motorsport full stop. The orchestrated 1-2 that ford had in 1977 was a farce in comparison with Bond slowing down for moffat to cross the line first and accepting a 2nd place when he deserved the win.

A9X best ever looking aussie V8 and i’m a ford fan

I was shown by my engine builder he got Yella Terra to make up a set of roller rockers with a smaller hole in them making the oil feed to the heads more restrictive this stops the oil pump sucking the sump dry during high rpm when racing around the track

give me a choice between a Lamborghini and 05 I would take 05 💪 just before I die when I can hear one last noise I hope it's the roar of this great muscle car . man I would die happy 😁💪🙏✝️

That’s Incredibly Awesome! Have A Great Weekend! 🤩❤️✨

This car is amazing! But don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry's and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec system exhaust

Magnificent sounding 350...wow! I was a wide eyed 8yr old when the 350 made it's debut at Sandown,and Spencer Martin somehow managed to avoid a catastrophe at the end of the main straight. The first GTHO looked a tad quicker, and with half reasonable disc brakes on the front. Unlike Holden's solid,smaller disc. Bathurst '69 was a classic, and kept me glued to the screen all race. Wily Harry's HDT won, and the rest is history. Motor racing back then was exciting, unlike the road train,compulsory pit stops, manufactured 'product' that masquerades as racing these days. Thanks for the upload 😁👍 P.S. of course the above is only my opinion.

We were standing on top of our transporter to watch these runs - lol got covered in smoke - also on top of the transporter was a very young Ben Bray - about 2.22 is the best image

Runs nice and quiet for an old Astra. You really got a bargain on this one. I get the feeling that it will clean up nicely and will make a great 'learner' car.

The Real Sedan Car RACERS, not like the demolition derby's of V8 super cars.

Great presentation! Mid Year Corvette. Not C2!

Music and NO MOTORSPORT .....YUK!!!! Turned off in first 30 secs

It's at the National Motor Museum Birdwood South Australia if you want to see it in real life

Great days those. Great drivers, great cars, real competition. These days, the sanitized generic V8 soup cars, which bear no technical connection to road cars, are sooo boring. The rules made for close racing now, make the whole show so artificial. Haven’t watched Bathurst or any other race for many years.

Back in the 70's the Torana's were regarded as one of the best sports cars in the world, not just Australia. Very little could keep up on a race track.

Vy commodore crank no start dfi plate pumps fuel 12v at the pin no spark at coils. No scan tool. Cas changed replacement. New battery. Ohm on coils 2.2. Any idea

For me there is so much emotion flowing through my veins for the C2. Just looking at those lines and how it sounds give me the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. My Uncle has a 66 that will be mine one day. I've tried to buy it several times, but he too has so much emotion for that car that he cries when he tells the story of how he got it back in 1967. I fear that the only way I'll get that car is when he leaves us. I could never do this to his car but damn, this thing is beautiful.

The Marlboro Torana was the greatest looking touring car ever. How I miss cigarette livery. Such a shame it is gone

Ive just never got used to the bend in conrod straight. It was so good originally. But it was a pretty steep hill they went up and eventually that poor guy flipped.

I was 8 and 9 years old in 78 and 79. It was off the charts exciting watching that as a kid, who had an eye for cars. I remember the feeling of watching that pole lap live in 79. To see the car from the air going down Conrod and as it skipped across the mountain, I recall the horror of knowing he was going to get pole, as unfortunately I was a ford fan. BUt we knew he was the best. And the best-looking touring car ever the Marlboro Torana., infatuated me how something could look so good. RIP to Brock, but he had a good run, and made me a part time rev head.
