Aussie HQ Holden Monaro Coupe GTS LS SS GTS 350 Muscle cars Classics

A completely new generation body design emerged with the HQ series in July 1971, including the new Monaro 'LS' (commonly believed to mean "Luxury Sports") model. There were no longer any six-cylinder versions of the Monaro GTS, just 253 or optional 308 V8s or the top level GTS350 coupe. The base model Monaro standard engine was enlarged to 173 cu in (2,830 cc) whilst the Monaro LS had a broad spectrum of engine options from a 202 cu in (3,310 cc) six to the 350 cu in (5,700 cc) V8. The new coupe design had a much larger rear window and a squarer rear quarter window; it was somehow seen as not as sporty looking compared to the earlier HK-HT-HG series, but is often now considered one of the best looking body designs to come from an Australian producer.

Had a neighbor with a 4 door HQ Munro in his garage. Purchased it from new, drove it home, took of the wheels, drained all the fluids and put it in storage. Only had 3 original kilometres on it when he sold it for close to $120k, sometime in the early 2000’s.
