A pristine Holden Torana which sat in a North Sydney storage unit for almost 30 years is set to break records when it goes under the hammer next week.

The 1977 Holden LX Torana A9X hatchback is part of the Shannons Autumn Classic, where auctioneers expect it will fetch between $200,000 and $250,000.

https://finance.nine.com.au/2018/03/14/15/59/1977-holden-lx-torana-a9x-sells-for-275000


Sold at Auction for $275000.

The owner of a 1977 Holden Torana had no trouble finding a buyer. The 'jasmine yellow' A9X model was expected to fetch $200,000 at a Shannons Car Auction last night. Instead an intense bidding war pushed the price up to $275,000.

Proof the Aussie muscle car still turns heads

A Bozo turned up in a Old Stingray  requesting he could park on the Black Top only .  l told him that over there he could see 4 , 64 Stangs that had managed to park on the grass , but if his car wasn't up to it ,,,,,,,,,,  . He parked on the grass & shut up        :'(                      :cheers:

Have you Mini fans seen this build on youtube? Probably not one for the purists.

Project Binky. Possibly the slowest Mini build ever, but quality work.
Bad Obsession Motorsports is the channel.

Here are some very cool old Austins for sale at the Brissy Manheim Auctions.
I believe it is the Rolls Royce donk, 4 gears forward and 4 back.









The round bit on top with the braided hoses is the dizzy cap. Water Proof they are, even has a fold up snorkle.

I used to have one of these, from memory they had a 5 speed box, 1st gear was pretty much a creeper gear, normally you started in 2nd. The motor is a Rolls Royce design but most of them where made under license by Austin. The reason you had the same number of gears in reverse was because the reverse gear was in the rear diff/transfer case, there was a tail shaft from the gearbox to the rear diff/transfer case and from there another one went forward to the front diff. With its four wheel independent suspension it was really comfortable to drive, especially for a short wheelbase unit.
