There's something that Americans and Australians had in common in the 60's and 70's.....we both built muscle cars. No other countries did. RIP Holden.

[@kieranfarrell5714]

A dear old friend of mine is doing one up at the moment. sort of his last horah. I can't wait to do This with him.

[@Marcusyzf250]

Awesome colour and wheels, the reverse scoop goes so well with the car and it sounds amazing.

[@Ticonderous1]

Damn I remember when i got my license in 87.. Nobody wanted these .. they were all about the commodore and flacons ...Boy have times changed now in 2021

[@TVperson1]

Really nice!!

[@7colliemac]

What a beauty ❤️

[@RoverIAC]

Sunburst Gold Metallic, Nice plates (but they didn't have GTS4 in 72).

[@dcr1545]

There is no better rear end than a HQ.

HK, HT and HT begs to differ

[@dcr1545]

@@dantemadden1533 fair enough. Different Stokes's for different forks.

[@drivewaynats3696]

Sounds fantastic!

[@martinsimiana3883]

It's sad to see how many stuff up the GTS stripes

[@ozzyrock1523]

How's da Holden going, any update vid ,looks real great

[@ThatMuscleCar]

She was sitting under a car cover for about 2 years, just waiting to be finished. She needed electrics, minor mechanical work and interior finished. She's back in the work shop now, finally getting finished, exciting times ahead.

[@ozzyrock1523]

@@ThatMuscleCar sounds great, I was hoping u still had this mighty Holden, will sound and look wicked az when she finished .. I just put 10G power upgrade into 2016 Calais v ls3, something a bit different than da norm. All da best for ur GTS, cheers mate.

[@BatMan-oe2gh]

Sweet looking and sounding ride there mate.But whats with the poxy Ford shit box?

[@geneticallysuperior6738]

I thought sedan Monaros came out in 1973?

[@waldomccluskey4568]

you are right

[@matthewelliott5625]

Me again GTS Monaro‘s were two doors not four

[@ThatMuscleCar]

Between 1973-1977 they offered a four-door Monaro. 👍

[@troylopezcarlife4837]

Great car, can you tell me what’s the size tires you’re running at the rear?

[@makjac46]

Cut the crap everyone, it's fantastic and we're jealous. Thanks for the share.

[@markusantonio4866]

Do you guys call those rally stripes down under?

[@barlos1497]

Markus Antonio fuck no

[@brisman1963]

I think we called them 'blackouts', but that's my memory from 32 years ago, so could be wrong. And Greetings from Oz.

[@billyjoechambers8494]

Racing stripes

[@mrxr6t]

Love it, I've got a 74 GTS 4 door. Just going through the stages of putting in a 383 LS1 stroker and looking at bonnet options. Which 1 do you have there and what size cowl? I've been chatting with Ezi-Glass in melb as they do a fibreglass 1 with cowl for a reasonable price, I just need to specify height.

[@ThatMuscleCar]

I got it from a group called Alpha fiberglass im pretty sure. And its 4"

[@mrxr6t]

+Dale Camo Awesome thanks for the info.

[@rnb250]

383 Hemi? Lol

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

How could one buy a HQ.holdern 4 door and bring it to America

[@DJBULLETPR00F]

sounds perfect mate wow Im planning a hq ute build this sounds so good could you tell me who built your motor

[@ThatMuscleCar]

My uncle had his own performance shop for 20 years. He sold the shop abd moved to The states. The shops no longer since he left, sorry mate.

[@emosituilevu5766]

Nice car mate!!! Killer!!! Just wondering what engine you got in it?

[@ThatMuscleCar]

@@emosituilevu5766 Cammed LS2 6.0L

[@absabsy6742]

Why is the Towee not wearing any Safety Boots, just imagine the pain if the tow ramp comes down on his toes, No Runners will save him

[@drivadan]

Can I get more info on the LS2 setup? Did you do the conversion yourself?

[@ThatMuscleCar]

My Uncle is a mechanic and did the most of of the conversion.

[@derekbean3424]

4 door GTS never come out to 73 not 72

[@safetysam6118]

looks like he put things rite then

[@Stolencamaro]

Mate ownes 73 4 door gts monaro

[@gregcollins6061]

I used to run cragar 14×7 and 8s with 50×265 on the rear when I had one...sat really low and personally I think 14s are so much more suited to old school, nice car but

[@7colliemac]

Let’s hope he doesn’t wrap it around the first lamppost after it’s restored.. 🙏🙄

[@ThatMuscleCar]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGXKZJKHn5agaqM She's been on the road for a couple years now, not a scratch. 👍

[@johnmanning1312]

Hi just wondering if you have finished it yet and how it looks

[@ThatMuscleCar]

Very close to finished now.

[@brettcarnes9520]

its finished, check his new vid

[@markcottierkw950]

11/01/17. So How's this Very Nice Mean Machine going?? Is she out on the streets yet?? Would love to see what she looks like now with a drive and drive by video!

[@BCBtrucks64]

thank christ he didnt put the passenger steer off the tray , go straight radar come straight !

[@davidashcroft5703]

Just reverse the car like a man haha..Fuckin beatiful

[@brettwatson-will3388]

Nice.

[@gixgix457]

Did anyone else panicky when that bar slide down lol

[@writenamehere0000]

2 door looks better but this is cool too if no other options.

[@thunderlips350]

The other option is money :) Sedans cost a fair bit less than 2 doors. I bought my coupe in the early 90's so the price wasn't exorbitant like they are today but I sold my fully original 74 GTS sedan shortly after for $2000. One of lifes little regrets.

[@jamiemackintosh2929]

sick

[@Schultzy1992]

it looks like a fake Monaro GTS

[@Schultzy1992]

+YELLOW LIGHTNING hardly I own a real one. All original matching numbers.

[@serohh.8587]

you are fucking number tossa

[@louisefitzgerald3674]

So what - that's like saying 'I've got 5yo washing machine' - takes a bit of panache to own an old car - own any tools, do ya? - IF GMH SAID IT WAS A MONARO - IT IS
