Holden never sold a car without rust!
Rust is the easy bit to find but originality is not
I also bought his ht premier as well now that has rust.

Engine number is pretty much on the money for a 7/74 HQ, may not be the original but close. Pagewood firewall number is just about spot on for the tags too. |

I believe that these numbers should read:- Chassis EHQ25582S Eng QT537230 Dr Terry |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |
