I would like to hear what everyone would like to buy if they could walk into their local holden dealer and pick one up. Using only factory options,special order paint acceptable (you are a special customer), cost no object. Dont worry about resale its just for your enjoyment. Me I would like a 5.0L 4speed HZ Prem wagon,tuxedo paint, chamois/black (60A?)interior, air con, pwr steer,pwr door locks, woodgrain GTS dash, wind deflector, roof racks, N67 wheels, paint protection plates, overriders. and cmon guys surely not everyone wants an A9x Have fun Leroy Edit dammit ill have to order another one w/rear disks and gold honeycombs thanks for reminding me Dr.T.

You are right, not everyone wants an A9X!
For me it would be a Burgundy Maroon HK GTS 327 with Parchment and Black Trim.

For my $$ it would have to be a LH/LX SLR 5000, pref with flared guards, correct GTS style rims and those huge logos down the side. What colour ? Hmm I would have to go for Barbados green.

Hi trubluhq.
I know I'm being pedantic, but you couldn't order an LH/LX SL/R5000 with flared guards & 'correct GTS style rims' back then, unless it was an L34 or an A9X.
Sure, a dealer could have had a local panel shop fit the guards, before sale, |

Unfortunately you couldnt option power windows in HK/HT/HG Monaros & you couldnt option factory A/C in an HQ SS.

Second choice to the HK GTS327, track down a dealer who could order a HQ 350 ute. There was at 1 x ordered in the same build configuration as the original Ewet ie 350, TH400. If possible order it as an XX7 ute in 1974 but with a 350. Probably difficult to |
