How rare is a Mako blue Monaro? I know of one optioned with matching interior and a vinyl roof. Would this increase the value of the car?

Definitely yes. It's probably the same car. Just found the data - is it 80337KR-00249-H5? If it is it had Nasco venetian blind, Nasco boot badge, air, steer plus more. Mako blue with 14X trim. Engine number starting with 307125xx.

I did hear there was one made for the Seakers, that would make 2.

I heard there was a black HK GTS of each type made, ie, 1 327, 1 307 and a 186S. I heard this from a member of the Vic Monaro club. He rekons he knows where all 3 are.
Would be interesting to know the actual truth.
