Car for Stickthis

I always look at these cars perplexed. I mean, how did an auto, white, tartan and vynal roof ever equal sporty car.

I think they were more of a grand touring car. The hatchback Torana was the sporty car.

I reckon the tartan trim was nice. I know what I would rather park my ars$ on in the summer, cheap vinyl or tartan material?

Was HZ GTS the only HQ-WB with optional cloth trim(excepting statesman)?

Cloth insert was available at least from the start of HK. Possibly Kingswood/Monaro upwards but I think it was available in Belmont passenger as well.

Must have been an expensive option? Dont see many with it.

Agree with goat, the HZ's were pretty tame looking when optioned with all the gear. HZ sandy's, now they were sporty!

Yes Byron. Thats a nice GTS. Nearly the same as mine. Except mine has no cloth insert! Just the way I like it haha. Same eng and trans and paint and colour trim otherwise.

Pitty about the blackout gts guards. Would be nice without them.

First one I have recorded with a vinyl roof too!

T350? hmmmm. looking at the chassis number its one of the first HZ's off the line too.
